REPORT OF THE <br /> COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC WORKS AND PARKS <br /> DATE: August 19, 1997 RE: COMM. NO.417/RES. NO. 135 <br /> PLACE: Councilroom <br /> TIME: 9:05 a.m. <br /> Chair and Members <br /> Hawaii County Council <br /> Hilo, Hawaii 96720 <br /> Your Committee on Public Works and Parks, to which was referred Communication No. 417 <br /> and attached Resolution No. 135, reports as follows: <br /> The purpose of Resolution No. 135 is to accept approximately 1.5 acres of land, the completed <br /> Keauhou Fire Station building, and related facilities from the Kamehameha Investment <br /> Corporation. The property, which is located at Keauhou 1 and 2, North Kona, Hawaii, at <br /> TMK (3) 7-8-07:53, will be utilized as a County fire station to benefit residents in the area. <br /> Communication No. 417 is a letter from Corporation Counsel Richard D. Wurdeman, dated <br /> July 28, 1997, which transmits Resolution No. 135 to the County Council for its review and <br /> consideration. <br /> Your Committee amended Resolution No. 135 by substituting Bill No. 135, Draft 2. Draft 2 <br /> corrected an error in the tax map key number, clarified that the Council would be accepting the <br /> property via quitclaim rather than dedication deed, and provided background on the history and <br /> need for this action. (See also Communication No. 417.01.) <br /> In response to questions about a reference in the Resolution to Kamehameha Investment Corp. as <br /> the owner of the newly constructed fire station, Deputy Corporation Counsel Fred Giannini <br /> agreed to submit a new draft of the resolution which would clarify the ownership status of the <br /> building. In addition, Your Committee asked that staff research whether the County or the State <br /> is responsible for installation of appropriate signage or lights indicating the presence of a fire <br /> station at this location. <br /> No testimony in opposition to this bill was offered. <br /> Your Committee is in accord with the purpose and intent of Resolution No. 135, Draft 2 and <br /> recommends its adoption. <br /> Ic <br /> AYES NOES A&E EX Respectfully submitted <br /> YAGONG X CO1v~1ITTEE ON PUBLIC WORKS & PARKS <br /> REYNOLDS X \ <br /> CHUNG X 1,'\ i:~~wv~-,~, ~..L E <br /> <br /> LEITHEAD-TODD X DOMINIC YAGONC~, <br /> CIA R ~ <br /> RAY X 1~1R l I ; <br /> SANTANGELO X PW&PC REP T I`GO. `J 62 <br /> SMl'rH X <br /> ARAKAKI E.O.A~ X ADOPTF,D: FILED - 09/03/97 <br /> <br />
