HRS §206J-16
Tax exemption for development corporation revenues and property
This section says the development corporation does not have to pay state or county taxes on money it earns from projects or leases, or on its ownership interest in a project. But a person or business using the project does not get a bigger tax break than they would if they paid for the project themselves.

The statute, as written — Exemption from taxation of development corporation
All revenues derived by the development corporation from any project or under a lease or other agreement pertaining thereto shall be exempt from all state and county taxation. Any right, title, and interest of the development corporation in any project shall also be exempt from all state and county taxation. Except as otherwise provided by law, the interest of a qualified person or other user of a project under a lease or other agreements related to a project shall not be exempt from taxation to a greater extent than it would be if the costs of the project were directly financed by the qualified person or other user.
