Act 253 allows each County to negotiate separate comisctc if the <br /> Union agrees to do so. We are negotiating our comract Statewide to encompass all Police <br /> Officers with the State of Hawau. However, because the City and County of Honolulu, <br /> and the County of Hawaii Police Departmem are the only two jurisdictions utilizing <br /> subsidized motor vehicles we have been told to speak with our respective mayors. On <br /> behalf of all Police Officers under Group I and Group II, I have requested from Mayor <br /> Kim an increase of $120.00 to $150.00 monthly. <br /> I have, and will cominue to, work closely with Mayor Kim regarding all issues relating to <br /> Police Officers and the Hawaii County Police Department. The Departmem and the <br /> Union are working in harmony to achieve goals set forth by the Department to provide <br /> better service to our community. Chief Lawrence Mahone and the Chiefs from Kauai, <br /> Maui, and the City and Coumy of Honolulu, and Union Officials have put forth a <br /> campaign declaring better pay for their highly trained Officers. We believe that Police <br /> Officers deserve an increase in their automobile allowance since we have not seen a raise <br /> in this area in eight years. I shall follow-up on this cost item with Mayor Kim and Chief <br /> Mahuna. <br /> Respectfully Submitted, <br /> Emory J. ringer, Hawaii Chapt Chairman <br /> STATE OF HAWAII ORGANIZATION OF POLICE OFFICERS <br /> EJSlkkc <br /> ce: Tetlazi Maafala, President, SHOPO <br /> <br />
