Originally, Bill 228 was submitted to amend the 2003 A General Obligation Bond (GOB) Ordinance, No. 03-49, as amended by Ordinance No. 03-125, to include reference to the new CIP project, Prosecuting Attorney's Office at Aupuni Center. Now, we would also like to include the Puainako Sewer Improvement District Project and the North Kona Sewer Improvement District Project. These new projects, as well as the Prosecuting Attorney's Office At Aupuni Center, are in the process of being added to the Capital Budget Ordinance, No. 03-90, of fiscal year 2003-04. Draft 2 of Bill No. 228 adds the Puainako Sewer and North Kona Sewer Improvement District Projects to the list of authorized projects under the 2003 A GOB Ordinance. Due to the change in scope of the Queen Liliuokalani Collector Sewer project, we estimate that there will be an excess allotment of 2003 A General Obligation Bonds in the amount of $200,000 which can be used to fund the Puainako and North Kona Sewer Improvement District studies. We apologize for any inconvenience that this change may cause. Should you have any questions, please feel free to call Nancy Crawford, Deputy Director of Finance. Thank you very much. ~illakaba u Director of Finance APPROVED: Ci~ 4 Harry Kim Mayor Comm. No. .13C1 ! J ~ Ref. To:CL~ cc: Environmental Mgt Ref.
