Re: Capital Budget
The Hawaii County Police Department's Microwave Relocation and System Renovation
project was initiated to replace the existing microwave communications system used by a
variety of public safety agencies. The project involves the analysis of the current facilities,
agreements with co-locators, acquisition of tower sites, tower modification and new tower
construction, equipment purchase and installation, and ultimately the transition to the new
equipment.
Enclosed is a bill for an ordinance adding the Microwave Relocation & System Renovation
Project for $500,000 to the Capital Budget. This appropriation, using funds from the General
Fund's fund balance and/or other sources, is needed for unanticipated costs related to
additional environmental assessment work, environmental assessment radar study costs,
revisions to the channel plan, radio costs, electromagnetic environmental (EME) testing and
other unforeseen requirements.
If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call the Police Department.
