HONORABLE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS
HAWAII COUNTY COUNCIL
25 AUPUNI STREET
HILO HI 96720
SUBJECT: AMENDMENT TO HAWAII COUNTY CODE, CHAPTER 21, ARTICLE 4
ENFORCEMENT OF SEWER USER FEES
Attached is a proposed amendment to Chapter 21, Hawaii County Code to
authorize the shutoff of water service by the Department of Water Supply
to enforce the collection of sewer user fees.
Currently, the Department of Public Works, Wastewater Management
Division, has no means by which to force payment of delinquent fees.
Because we do not have the ability to withhold sewer service, our
delinquent fees have been a major revenue loss for the County.
We have discussed and coordinated this amendment with the Department of
Water Supply who concur with our proposal.
Under separate cover, we are transmitting the proposed ordinance to the
Public Works Committee Chair for introduction. Your favorable
consideration of this request would be greatly appreciated. Should you
have any concerns, please contact us.
