Dela Cruz, Chair <br />Committee on Ways and Means <br />Senator Gilbert S.C. Keith-Agaran, Vice Chair <br />Committee on Ways and Means <br />Dear Chair Dela Cruz, Vice Chair Keith-Agaran, and Committee Members: <br />RE: SB 875 Relating to Making an Appropriation for State Lifeguards <br />Thank you for this opportunity to testify in support of SB 875, which would fund lifeguard services at <br />Kua Bay in Kekaha Kai State Park. <br />Kua Bay is one of the most beautiful locations in the islands, but its hidden hazards can prove deadly. <br />It is now easily accessible, so for the sake of locals and visitors alike, a lifeguard at that location is definitely <br />warranted and would be much appreciated. <br />Please act favorably on SB 875. Better yet, please include the positions and appropriate funding in the <br />Senate version of the Budget. <br />R- pectfully Submitted, <br />c <br />Harry Kim <br />MAYOR <br />County of Hawaii is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer. <br />
