Re: Operating Budget
At the Hawai'i County Council meeting held on October 31, 2006, Resolutions 489-06 and 493-06
were adopted to transfer funds from the Clerk-Council Services Contingency Relief account to the
Transfer to Highway Fund account. Resolution 489-06, submitted by District 2 Council Member
Donald Ikeda, transferred a total of $30,000 and are to be used towards costs related to the
installation of "Smart Signs" (speed limit signs alerting drivers to the speed in which they are driving)
and would be installed on Ainako Avenue, KOkOau Street, and Waianuenue Avenue. Resolution 493-
06, submitted by District 3 Council Member James Arakaki, transferred a total of $20,000 and are to
be used towards the purchase of two "Smart Signs" to help control speeding on West Kawailani Street
and Ainaola Drive by alerting drivers of their vehicle speed in real-time.
Enclosed is a bill for an ordinance amending the Operating Budget by appropriating the aforementioned
monies, a total of $50,000, to the Traffic Division Equipment account within the Highway Fund.
Since the monies have already been approved for transfer to the Highway Fund, the Department of
Public Works would like to request a waiver from the Finance committee and have this bill heard at the
Council meeting scheduled for November 15, 2006.
If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call the Department of Public Works.

RE: Bill No. 361 An Ordinance to amend Ordinance No. 06-79, as amended, the
Operating Budget for the County of Hawaii for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007.
Pursuant to Section 2(g) of Rule 4 of the Rules of Procedure of the Council of the County of
Hawaii, this written request is submitted with my approval that the above-referenced matter be
waived from the Committee on Finance to the full Council for immediate action. In reviewing
this matter, timely approval is crucial. It is therefore advantageous that approval is granted and
the matter placed onto the next Council agenda for review. However, in the event this request is
denied, for whatever reason, I understand the matter shall be referred to the Committee on
Finance for placement on its future agenda.
Sincer ly,
