HRS §346-366
Time limits for providing shelter to homeless families
If money is available, a provider agency must give shelter or other help to eligible homeless families and individuals within three days after a vacancy, or within a time set by rule that cannot be later than seven days after they apply and qualify. The department can waive these limits for up to fourteen days for major repairs.
The statute, as written — Time limits
To the extent that appropriations are made available, a provider agency shall provide shelter or any other program assistance authorized by this part to eligible homeless families and homeless individuals not later than three days after a vacancy occurs, or such time as is set by rule, which shall not be later than seven days after they apply and qualify for the shelter or other program assistance. These time limits may be waived at the discretion of the department for a maximum period of fourteen days for the purpose of implementing repairs to the subject shelter that the department deems major or extensive.
