Written Testimony

Online Form: https://luc.hawaii.gov/testimony/
E-mail: [email protected]
Mail: State Land Use Commission, P.O. Box 2359, Honolulu, HI 96804

Oral Testimony

If you intend to provide oral testimony, you must attend the meeting in person at the meeting location indicated on the meeting agenda. Please state your name for the record. If you are testifying on behalf of an organization, please include the name of the organization. Testimony will be limited to a maximum of two minutes per person, per item.

Pursuant to HAR §15-15-65 the presiding officer
may limit the number of witnesses or the time for
testimony upon a particular issue.

* Only if the LUC is holding a “Hybrid” Meeting, will we allow testimony via zoom or phone. *

Regardless of format, to ensure the Commissioners have time to review your written testimony, we suggest that it reaches us at least 24 hours before the meeting. All written testimony will be posted to the LUC website under the specific docket page. Late written testimony will be retained as part of the record, but we cannot assure the commission will receive it with sufficient time for review prior to decision-making.
