In the current Budget Ordinance 24-32, $580,000 is appropriated in the HCPD 2023
STEP Grant account. Additional federally derived funds in the amount of $48,764 are
being provided by the State of Hawaii, Department of Transportation and the National
Priority Safety Program for training, education, enforcement, and community
collaboration to reduce the number of traffic fatalities and injuries.
Enclosed is a bill for an ordinance amending the Operating Budget by appropriating these
