Amomj the factors that have
iu|K)tt<i(tly impeded implementation of
the Act. >>bjciotLvo« art the lack of
money, the nature and location of the
land* anil the interests and desires of
native ll.iw,iUan«.
Nevertheless, progress has improved
in recent yoars. During the past 10
ye/irti tho number of homesteaders
increased by L,015. Thus, approximately
3 3 percent of the present
homesteadera have been placed on the
land during the last 10 years of the
60-year history of the Act. Further,
during the past 6 years the State has
provided over $42 million of State
funds for planning, design, construction,
and financing of
development improvements and during
the Be same 6 years 669 homesteads have
been placed on the land and 373
.^placement homes have been built and
t inanced. The records indicate that
prior to 197 3 there was very little
funding outside of DHHL generated
revenues from leases, royalties, and
interests.
The original intent of the Act was
for native Hawaiians to become
jobs Latent or commercial farmers and
ranchers. However, less than 2 years
after the passage of the Act, Congress
amended the Act to permit residential
lots. Since then, the demand of
native Hawaiians for residential lots
has far exceeded the demand for
agricultural or pastoral lots. For
example, 87 percent of the applicants
on the June 30, 1981 eligibility lists
desire residential lots. However, 64
percent of the applicants for
residential lots have applied for lots
on the island of Oahu, but only about
one percent of the available land
suitable for residences is on Oahu.
DHHL developed a 10-year general
plan in 1975, that established four
major goals and objectives for the
10-year period ending in 1985. A
comparison of the results achieved
during the first 6 years with the
objectives indicates that three of the
goals are not being achieved: housing
for new homesteaders, allocating
agricultural lends, end reduoing the
acreage of lands used for income
purpoees. (See Table 70.) During the
6-year period, over 1,000 homes were
built, including the 669 homes in
Table 70 end 373 replacement homes.
Also, the 793 acres of increased
egricultural land do not include 5,800
acres of pineapple land taken out of
production during the 1975-1978
period.
A measure of program accomplishment
is the number of homesteaders served
and the amount of the land in the
possession of native Hawaiians.
According to the DHHL 1981 annual
report, the number of homesteaders and
the amount of acreage utilized is as
follows>
Type of Number of Number of
Homestead Homesteaders Acres
Residential 2,618 1,330
Farms 347 7,619
Ranches 69 17,113
Community pasture *J 13,706
Total 3,034 39,768
V Community pastures are available
for use by all the homesteaders living
in the area of a community pasture.
The Chairman, DHHL, stated that in
evaluating their accomplishments it
should be noted that Hawaiian families
tend to be large, averaging five or
six members per family and, therefore,
each homestead could be benefitting
several Hawaiians.
Another measure of program accomplishment
is obtained by a review of
the eligibility lists for homesteads.
There were 7,225 eligible applicants
for homesteads as of March 15, 1981,
summarized in Table 71. Our analysis
of the lists showed that over 18
percent of the applicants had been on
the eligibility lists for more than 15
years. This analysis is summarized in
Table 72.
