October 255 20229 HSAC Mooting Agenda Page 112 SP'EA <br /> x <br /> ° touwt'�a <br /> CM Waters: Understand the need to increase recruitment. We have 329 police officer <br /> vacancies. To clarify, this is state law? Thought it was 25 and out. May be slippery <br /> slope as you will get others asking. We did just approve an increase to pay over a <br /> certain number of years. Appreciate all the work they are doing. <br /> CM Chock: Take the vote. Motion passes, approved to be included in the HSAC <br /> legislative package. <br /> ii. Maui County Resolution No. 22-197 <br /> APPROVING FOR INCLUSION IN THE 2023 HAWAII STATE <br /> ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES LEGISLATIVE PACKAGE A <br /> STATE BILL RELATING TO THE HAWAII PUBLIC <br /> PROCUREMENT CODE. <br /> CM Paltin: This is a responsible bidders ordinance modeled after Indiana, Illinois, <br /> and Ioha, ensuring folks bidding on. Key part is having the form be available for <br /> public inspection as that is currently not part of the process. A lot of support for this <br /> from the unions and people who want accountability on how the money is being spent <br /> i <br /> for capital improvement projects. Asks for info on change orders. Worked pretty well <br /> in Indiana, Illinois, and Iowa. <br /> Jon Okudara: Not sure how to respond, would like to hear from the administrators. <br /> Last thing we would want is to testify in support and then DAGs comes and says no. <br /> Depends on who is there now that Kurt is gone. Something we should be prepared to <br /> respond to in case they say it is not a good idea. <br /> So that when we go into session we know how to respond to them. <br /> ED.It would be really helpful Jon if you can gather that information so we can <br /> prepare the testimony. <br />
