including utilization of the limited number of ICU hospital beds on island. Without immediate action, the County of Hawaii is unable to meet urgent health care needs of our island community. As a result, it is necessary to continue restrictions in order to reduce the threat of spread of COVID-19 and enable our health care resources to meet urgent health care needs attributable to COVID-19; and WHEREAS, due to the possibility of imminent emergency or disaster due to bodily injury to residents of the County of Hawaii, and the need for government agencies and representatives from the private sector to mobilize and provide financial and other immediate services to our island residents, a state of emergency is authorized pursuant to Chapter 127A Hawaii Revised Statutes, and Chapter 7, Hawai`i County Code. NOW, THEREFORE, I, MITCHELL D. ROTH, Mayor of the County of Hawaii, do hereby proclaim and declare that a state of emergency continues to exist due to the imminent danger or threat of emergency on Hawaii Island from the COVID-19 pandemic. This Twelfth Supplementary Emergency Proclamation shall be effective November 30, 2021, continuing thereon until January 28, 2022, unless terminated or superseded by a separate proclamation, whichever shall occur first. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the County of Hawaii to be affixed. Done this 30th day of November, 2021 in Hilo, Hawaii. 1 Mitchell D.
