Specifically, you believe that the County's law enforcement agencies aze currently jllliY311}C operating without a mandated program review on the Marijuana Eradication Program as required every four yeazs by the County Charter. The Hawaii County Charter does state that at least every four yeazs the council shall review every program supported wholly or paztially by county funds and authorize its continuation or terminate the program. The Charter also says that the council shall adopt procedures to implement the mandatory program review. The Council in its Rules of Procedure (Rule 24) has determined that the depaztmental program review and the budget adoption process will meet the charter requirement. This rule has been in place for many years. As such, the program review you aze referring to is accomplished annually at the minimum. As always, I know your questions aze based on principles of government accountability. Sincerely, Constance R.
