Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred Bill No. 193, reports as follows:
Bill No. 193, transmitted by Finance Director Deanna Sako, via Communication No. 1061
dated August 27, 2020, amends Ordinance No. 20-45, as amended, the Operating Budget for the
County of Hawai`i for the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2021.
This bill appropriates revenue in the Federal—CDBG (Community Development Block Grant)
COVID-19 account ($978,184); and appropriates the same to the following CDBG-CV2 accounts: Food
Basket Emergency Food Distribution Equipment Acquisition; Boys and Girls Club of Big Island—
Mobile Youth Outreach Services; Na Kahua Hale 0 Ulu Wini —Laundry and Utility Improvements;
Project Vision Hawai`i — Mobile Health and Hygiene Service; and CDBG-CV Administration. Funds
would be used to prevent, prepare for, and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.
A motion to move Bill No. 193 to Council with a positive recommendation was made by Council
Member Karen Eoff, and seconded by Council Member Rebecca Villegas.
A motion to amend Bill No. 193 with the contents of Comm. 1061.1, dated September 8, 2020, was
made by Council Member Susan L. K. Lee Loy, and seconded by Council Member Ashley L. Kierkiewicz.
Said amendment reflects the exact dollar amount each entity will receive from the second round of funding,
totaling $978,184. Housing Administrator Duane Hosaka confirmed that the amendment was necessary to
correct the dollar amounts that were inadvertently misrepresented.
Your Committee on Finance is in accord with the purpose and intent of Bill No. 193, as amended to
Draft 2, and recommends its passage on first reading.
