land use is highly regulated. Attorneys and legal staff, planners,
government officials, land owners and developers need to
understand the complex federal, state and local requirements
and procedures.
An expert faculty of land use practitioners, planners and
regulators will explain the latest issues in land use law as it
affects all Hawaiians. This program will give you the tools
you need to fully participate in the Hawai‘i land use system.
