HRS §237-29
Tax break for approved housing projects
This section says that certain people or companies who work on housing projects approved by the state do not have to pay general excise tax on the money they earn from that work. It also covers nonprofit groups building low- and moderate-income housing. The tax department and housing agency will make rules about how this works.
