HI HB189

Amends Hawaii Revised Statutes Section 205-5 to add "secondary" uses alongside "accessory" uses for agricultural tourism activities permitted on working farms in agricultural districts

Requires counties to adopt ordinances mandating that principal agricultural use must exist on a farm before any land use or building permits can be issued for accessory or secondary tourism uses

Restricts agricultural tourism to land where "productive agricultural use" is occurring, defined as property taxed as agricultural and current on real property tax obligations

County ordinances must address farm access requirements, facility restrictions (gift shops, restaurants), visitor activities, operating hours, and automatic termination of tourism uses if farming operations cease
