Your Committee on Public Safety and Parks and Recreation, to which was referred
Communication No. 1133, Bi11351, reports as follows:
Communication No. 1133, Bi11351, transmitted by Council Member Bob Jacobson via
Communication No. 1133, Bi11351 dated October 10, 2006, amends Chapter 15, Article 7, of the
Hawaii County Code 1983 (2005 Edition), relating to the Veterans Advisory Committee.
The key amendments in the bill are 1) clarifies that in addition to 16 members there are two ex-
officio members with no voting power; 2) includes the entire island when filling the slot for the
Military Order of the Purple Heart as it has now changed to an island wide organization, and
reduces four independent slots to three since one is being designated to Korean Waz Veterans; 3)
removes Section 15-62 (f) regarding ex-officio members as it is now included in a previous
section (Section I5-61 -Organization).
Your Committee on Public Safety and Parks and Recreation is in accord with the purpose and
intent of Communication 1133, Bi11351 and recommends passage on first reading.
