Workforce housing purchase priority and sale tracking
Maui County
Summary
Bill 14 locks in who gets first shot at buying workforce housing units — local residents on the wait list, then the County, then nonresidents — and brings back paperwork that verifies units actually sell to eligible buyers. Councilmember Rawlins-Fernandez also raised the bigger issue: the county still can't fully track who ends up in these units or whether they stay affordable after deed restrictions expire.

Impact analysis
No direct cost to taxpayers; the bill mainly affects who can buy below-market workforce units and how sales are documented.
Local residents on the workforce housing wait list get clearer, stronger priority for below-market homes.
