Haw. Rev. Stat. § 39A-226
In addition to the other powers which it may otherwise have, the department may issue special purpose revenue bonds to finance or refinance, the costs of facilities of, or for, or to loan the proceeds of such bonds to assist project parties. All revenue bonds issued under this part are special purpose revenue bonds and the provisions of part III of chapter 39 shall not apply thereto. All special purpose revenue bonds shall be issued in the name of the department and not in the name of the State.
The department in determining the cost of any project, may also include the following: financing charges, fees, and expenses of any trustee and paying agents for special purpose revenue bonds issued to pay the cost of such project; interest on such bonds and the expenses of the State in connection with such bonds and the project to be financed or refinanced from the proceeds of such bonds accruing or incurred prior to and during the period of construction and for not exceeding twelve months thereafter; amounts necessary to establish or increase reserves for the special purpose revenue bonds; the cost of plans, specifications, studies, surveys, and estimates of costs and of revenues; other expenses incidental to determining the feasibility or practicability of the project; administration expenses; interest cost incurred by the project party with respect to the project prior to the issuance of the special purpose revenue bonds; fees and expenses incurred in connection with the refinancing of outstanding obligations; and such other costs, commissions, and expenses incidental to the construction, acquisition, reconstruction, renovation, rehabilitation, improvement, betterment, operation, or extension of the project, the financing or refinancing thereof, placing of same in operation, and the issuance of the special purpose revenue bonds, whether incurred prior to or after the issuance of such bonds.
The legislature finds and determines that the exercise of the powers vested in the department by this part constitutes assistance to not-for-profit corporations serving the general public and that the issuance of special purpose revenue bonds to finance or to refinance facilities of, or for, or to loan the proceeds of such bonds to assist, project parties, is in the public interest.
