February 2, 1998

Dear Dr. Naya:
Re: Enterprise Zones
By memorandum dated July 7, 1997, you asked for our opinion
on an amendment to the State Enterprise Zone Law, chapter 209E,
Hawaii Revised Statutes, which legislatively designates a new
enterprise zone in the Waialua District of Oahu (new EZ). Your
memorandum poses the following questions:
1.   Will businesses located in.the new EZ' be
eligible for state EZ tax benefits for seven
consecutive years, or only until the five-
year sunset date of June 30, 2002, when
authorization for the new EZ expires?
2.   Will the City and County of Honolulu be
required to offer its county-level enterprise
zone (EZ) incentives to participating
businesses in the new EZ?
We have taken the liberty of rephrasing your three
questions by deleting the words expanded portion of the Waialua-
Haleiwa EZ and expanded part of the zone and substituting
therefor the words new EZ because we find no basis in the
legislation for the notion that the amendment expands an existing
EZ located at Waialua-Haleiwa.

Op. No. 98-01
