WHEREAS, Article XIII, Section 13-12, of the Hawaii County Charter provides
that the Council, on behalf of the County, may accept gifts of donations of money,
securities or other personal property or of real estate or any interest in real estate, and
Chapter 2, Article 30, Section 2-162 (b), of the Hawaii County Code states that a gift or
donation of money, securities, or personal property not covered by the capitalization
procedures (of the Department of Finance) shall be submitted to the Council by letter for
its approval; and
WHEREAS, donations of commodities not covered by the Department of Finance
capitalization procedures are made by various entities throughout the year to the
County of Hawaii and are accepted by the Hawaii County Council via letter during a
duly noticed meeting of the County Council; and
WHEREAS, although both the executive and legislative branches of the County
of Hawaii place a high priority on expediting the acceptance of these donations, the
process is often lengthy; and
WHEREAS, it is in the best interest of the public that a more expeditious manner
of accepting uncapitalized donations be implemented; now, therefore,
henceforth, all donations within the current fiscal year (FY2022) that are not covered by
the capitalization procedures (of the Department of Finance) shall be deemed accepted
by the Hawaii County Council, on behalf of the County of Hawaii, upon receipt by the
County, provided that at the end of each fiscal year a report of the donations received is
submitted to the Council by the Finance Director.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this method of accepting donations not
covered by the capitalization procedures (of the Department of Finance) shall remain in
effect until it is rescinded or otherwise modified by the Hawaii County Council.
BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED that the County Clerk shall transmit a copy of this
resolution to the Department of Finance and the Office of the Mayor and to the
Corporation Counsel.
