K. L. Todd <br />Fire Chief <br />Daniel J. Volpe <br />Deputy Fire Chief <br />Please find the attached measure for the Council's consideration. We respectfully request that <br />this matter be referred to the appropriate committee. We have enclosed the proposal for an <br />updated version of the 2025 Hawai'i County Amendments for the most recent adoption of the <br />Hawai'i State Fire Code. The changes proposed are intended to streamline the County Fire Code <br />to provide closer alignment with State and National Standards. Our goal is to reduce confusion <br />among our design professionals and contractors as they design and construct buildings, the <br />public when they attempt to conduct business, and our local shareholders that have Fire safety <br />concerns within the code. <br />Please reach out to me at (808) 932-2913 if you have any additional questions or concerns. <br />Sincerely, <br />ROYD WILLIAM K.
