HAR §15-110-22. Fixing and regulation of rents, fees, and charges

(a) The authority shall have the power to fix and regulate all rents, fees, charges, or other payments for the use or rental of all buildings, grounds, facilities, utilities, and structures within the convention center, as well as for services rendered, products or materials provided and/or sold, by the authority, by or on behalf of the manager, or by any third parties, in connection with operations and activities of the convention center. (b) Rents, fees, charges, or other payments shall be reviewed periodically by the authority. In consultation with the manager and other appropriate parties, the authority shall fix such rents, fees, charges, or other payments or such ranges of rents, fees, charges, or other payments as it determines will best achieve the purposes and objectives of the authority. (c) Where the authority establishes a range of rents, fees, charges, or other payments, the manager shall have the power to charge the rents, fees, charges, or other payments within the range established by the authority. (d) The adoption, establishment, or modification of rents, fees, charges, or other payments for any business related to the use or rental of the convention center shall not require the adoption of new rules or the amendment of these rules, but shall require action by the authority at a duly noticed public meeting held pursuant to chapter 92, HRS; provided, however, that the range of rental fees for space for local events shall be established only through adoption of new rules or amendment of these rules. Local events are defined as those non-convention-type events at which attendance by non-residents of Hawaii is less than ten percent of total anticipated attendance.
