Form #: B-52 <br /> 7/18/91 <br /> DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE <br /> REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br /> DEPARTMENT: Hawaii Fire Department DATE: 9/13/2023 <br /> STAFF CONTACT: Nikol Lonokapu PHONE: 932-2900 <br /> A. REQUEST: <br /> To request a bill for an ordinance amending Ordinance 23-51, The Capital Budget, by adding an <br /> appropriation for the Waiuli (Leleiwi) Beach Park lifeguard tower, $48,000.00, South Hilo Fair Share <br /> Contributions. <br /> B. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED): <br /> The lifeguard tower at Waiuli (Leleiwi) Beach Park needs to be replaced. <br /> The tower has been out of service for nearly 5 years due to deterioration. The tower was deemed <br /> unsafe to occupy and in 2021 it was demolished and disposed of so the public would not get hurt on <br /> or near it: We haven't had the funds to replace it since, so we have been covering the area with <br /> guards from Richardson's Ocean Park. Getting funding to replace this tower would be great for <br /> Ocean Safety. This is the last remaining tower that needs to be replaced with the new fiberglass <br /> Surveyor towers island-wide. <br /> SIGNED: DATE: f W2-3 <br /> Z _DeartrnentHead <br />
