HOUSE RESOLUTION

 

 

requesting the auditor to conduct a sunrise review of the licensure and regulation of resident managers.

 

 


     WHEREAS, legislation introduced during the 2017 Regular Session proposes the licensure and regulation of resident managers; and

 

     WHEREAS, persons who act or hold themselves out as resident managers for condominium associations are not presently required to be licensed, certified, registered, or otherwise regulated by the State; and

 

     WHEREAS, resident managers are the principal advisors to condominium associations on essential association matters such as elections, budget and financial matters, contracts, personnel issues, and maintenance and replacement of equipment — activities which require specialized knowledge, judgment, or managerial skill; and

 

     WHEREAS, section 26H-6, Hawaii Revised Statutes, requires new measures, subjecting unregulated professions and vocations to licensing or other regulatory controls, to be referred to the Auditor for analysis; now, therefore,

 

     BE IT RESOLVED by the House of Representatives of the Twenty-ninth Legislature of the State of Hawaii, Regular Session of 2017, that the Auditor is requested to conduct a sunrise review of the licensure and regulation of resident managers as proposed by legislation introduced during the 2017 Regular Session; and

 

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Auditor is further requested to submit findings and recommendations, including any proposed legislation, to the Legislature no later than twenty days prior to the convening of the Regular Session of 2018; and

 


     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a certified copy of this Resolution be transmitted to the Auditor.
