Re: Bill No. 239, Draft 2
We request that you replace Bill No. 239 with the enclosed Draft 2 of this same bill.
Originally, within Bill No. 239, a total funding of $630,000, set forth in Act 178, Session Laws of Hawaii
2005, was appropriated to the following four (4) programs: Healing Our Island, Adolescent Drug
Prevention Program, Community Anti-Drug Effort Account, and Hawaii County Resource Center Anti-
Drug Fund. Although the County will be facilitating these 4 programs, the organizations involved or
receiving funding with the Adolescent Drug Prevention Program (for $380,000) and the Hawaii County
Resource Center Anti-Drug Fund (for $50,000) will be paid for their services directly by the State. Thus,
the funding for these two programs does not need to be appropriated.
Draft 2 of Bill No. 239 will only appropriate the State's Act 178 funding for the Healing Our Island and
Community Anti-Drug Effort accounts (at $100,000 each) since the County will be receiving the
monies for these programs.
We apologize for any inconvenience that this change may cause. Should you have any further
questions, please feel free to call the Office of Management. Thank you very much.
