REPORT OF THE
COMMITTEE ON FINANCE
Re: Comm. No. 562/Bill No. 98
Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred Bill No. 98, reports as follows:
Bill No. 98, transmitted by Finance Director Deanna S. Sako via Communication No. 562 dated
October 13, 2023, amends Ordinance No. 23-50, as amended, the operating budget for the County of
Hawaii for fiscal year ending June 30, 2024.
This bill increases revenues in the State Grants — Kua Bay account ($198,220) and West Hawaii Ocean
Safety account ($245,194); and appropriates the same to the Kua Bay — State Salaries and Wages
account and the Hapuna Beach — State Salaries and Wages account, for a total appropriation of $778,220
(Kua Bay) and $1,264,297 (Hapuna Beach). These additional funds would be used for costs associated
with ocean safety at Kua Bay and Hapuna Beach.
Committee Member Ashley L. Kierkiewicz invited Assistant Fire Chief Darwin Okinaka to
provide some background on this measure. Ms. Kierkiewicz commented in support of this
measure and thanked Mr. Okinaka.
Your Committee on Finance is in accord with the purpose and intent of Bill No. 98, and recommends
its passage on first reading.
