PLACE: Council Chambers
TIME: 10:35 a.m.

Hawaii County Council
Hilo, Hawaii 96720
Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred Resolution No. 441-06, reports as follows:
Resolution No. 441-06, transmitted by Director of Finance William Takaba, via Communication
No. 1039, dated August 22, 2006, creates an Administrative Services Assistant position for the
Department of Environmental Management's Solid Waste Division.
The recent Legislative Auditor's audit identified insufficient staff to prepare the numerous
contracts for transfer station enhancements and recycling efforts. This new position is needed to
provide clerical and other assistance to the Solid Waste Division Chief, Engineering, and special
programs staff. It will augment the current staff and will primarily be responsible far reducing
issues that were identified in the audit.
Funds will be made available in the Solide Waste Fund's Landfills Regular Salaries and Wages
account.
Pursuant to Article V, Section 5-1.3(c), Hawaii County Charter, the Mayor has the power to
"Create positions...for which appropriations have been made by the Council."
There was no discussion on this measure.
Your Committee on Finance is in accord with the purpose and intent of Resolution No. 441-06
and recommends its adoption.
