The East Kapolei project includes approximately 1,000 affordable rental units plus commercial, retail, hotel, medical, light industrial, business park facilities, and a park-and-ride facility for the Keoneae rail station.

Requests the Hawaii Housing Finance and Development Corporation partner with the Hawaii Community Development Authority to develop non-housing community development portions and lead infrastructure construction across the project area.

Urges revenue generated from the project be shared with the Department of Land and Natural Resources after the transfer.

The project encompasses three non-contiguous sites (Keoneae Station Area, Kualakai Parkway West, and Kualakai Parkway East) near rail stations, with a draft Environmental Impact Statement published in July 2025.
