(a) The board of land and natural resources, after notification and public hearing as provided in subsection (b), may amend the height, density, and other building restrictions or requirements and the specific use or uses contained in a lease for hotel, commercial, or industrial use of public land to another or an additional specific hotel, commercial, or industrial use or uses, or restriction; provided that the lease has been in effect twenty years or more, and upon:
(1) The application of the lessee;
(2) Consent of each holder of record having a security interest in any improvements made by the lessee to the leased public land;
(3) A finding by not less than two-thirds of the total membership of the board that the amended use or uses or restriction is in the public interest; and
(4) Agreement by the lessee that the lessee, commencing from the effective date of the amendment, shall pay a revised annual rent equal to the annual fair market rental value of the land based on the amendment. The annual fair market value of the land shall be determined and set by the board.

A full hearing shall be given by the board of land and natural resources, to all who desire to be heard upon the subject matter of the notice. The hearing shall be public, on the island where the subject property is situated, and shall be conducted under rules that the board may adopt.
