Honorable James Arakaki, Chairperson and Members of the County Council 3 Hawaii County Council _ _ ~ ; 25 Aupuni Street Hilo, Hawaii 96720 - Re: Resolution Transferring Funds Enclosed is a resolution transferring $23,000 out and from the Landfills Equipment and crediting it to the Landfill Salaries and Wages account. Funds are available in the Landfills Equipment account due to the expected savings of around $35,000 resulting from the purchase of an 8 CY Dump Truck instead of the 10 CY Dump Truck that was originally budgeted. The funds being transferred into the S&W account will be used to fill an unfunded Equipment Operator III position (position number 4249) for the Solid Waste Division in Kona. The volume of waste being handled in Kona has been steadily increasing and the current staffing level is no longer adequate to handle the workload. Funding this position will reduce the overtime and the workload strain on the existing employees at the site. If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call the Department of Environmental Management. ,V William Tak ba Director of Finance APPROVED: arty Kim Z, Mayor Comm. No. Ref. To: Enc. Ref.
