HAWAVI COUNTY COUNCIL
25 Aupuni Street,Hilo,Hawaii 96720
MEMORANDUM
DATE: January 6, 2023
TO: Heather Kimball, Council Chair; and
Members of the Hawaii Council
'i
FROM: Sue Lee Loy, Council Me
SU ECT: Formation of an ad hoe committee regarding review of nonprofi 6-month progress
reports for FY 22-23 and grant-in-aid applications for FY 23-24 Waiwai grants
program
Pursuant to Hawaii Revised Statues Section 92-2.5(b), I am requesting approximately fifteen
minutes on the February 7, 2023, agenda of the Legislative Approvals and Acquisitions
Committee for the formation of a permitted interaction group. This group is intended to be
constituted as an ad hoc committee to review 6-month progress reports for FY22-23 and review
and make recommendations on grant applications from nonprofit organizations submitted to the
Finance Department under the procedures established in the Hawai'l County Code, Article 25,
and specifically in Section 2-139(a)(1)(C).
The scope of this committee will be limited to:
• Investigating and making relevant inquiries to nonprofit organizations who have
submitted 6-month progress reports for FY 22-23;
• Investigating and making relevant inquiries to nonprofit organizations the director of
finance deems eligible, pursuant to Section 2-139(a)(1)(B), to receive grant awards, and
then recommending appropriation amounts to the Council for funding in the fiscal year
beginning July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024.
I anticipate the ad hoc committee will include myself and other council members (comprising
less than a majority of the whole Council).
Once the ad hoc committee is established, HRS Section 92-2.5(b)(1)(C)requires the findings and
recommendations of its investigation to be presented at a future meeting of the Legislative
Approvals and Acquisitions Committee.
Participating Council members' staff will be enlisted to facilitate meetings and to provide
technical, logistical and clerical support.
