First Home Rebuild in Lahaina Impact Zone
“Resilience needs to be pre-planned; it needs to begin as people rebuild.”
Community Quote, LTRP Feedback
Purpose
This project seeks to encourage the implementation of higher (more stringent) building codes than those currently in place, which would result in development more resilient to future hazards.
Project Description
This project would promote the implementation of higher building codes for rebuilt residential and commercial buildings. The initial incentive would be the increased resilience from the current codes to the higher ones. This project will showcase that, for each hazard type, higher codes increase resilience and reduce hazard vulnerability. Additional incentives would be developed by appropriate partners. This project is distinct from the “mitigation fund for homeowners.”
Interdependencies and Roadblocks
Implementation would require the coordination between various agencies including the Department of Finance, Department of Public Works and County Council. Project needs to be further developed and discussed with appropriate partners.
Next Steps
- Project scope needs to be developed
