Mr. Inaba then asked if there was an increase in green fees, to which <br />Mr. Sewake replied that there was an increase in 2022. <br />Committee Member Michelle Galimba expressed that she would like the golf course to be more <br />sustainable and stated her interest in talking with the department about that possibility. <br />Your Committee on Finance is in accord with the purpose and intent of Bill No. 42, and recommends its <br />passage on first reading. <br />la <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />COMMITTEE ON FINANCE <br />•, <br />row. :_ 1 <br />FC REPORT'NO.: 47 <br />ADOPTED: MAY --O 22023 <br />AYES NOES ABS EX <br />EVANS <br />X <br />GALIMBA <br />X <br />INABA <br />X <br />KAGIWADA <br />X <br />KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER <br />X <br />KIERKIEWICZ <br />X <br />KIMBALL <br />X <br />LEE LOY <br />X <br />VILLEGAS <br />X <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />COMMITTEE ON FINANCE <br />•, <br />row. :_ 1 <br />FC REPORT'NO.: 47 <br />ADOPTED: MAY --O 22023 <br />
