The West Hawai'i Civic Center is to replace existing facilities that are no longer of adequate size to accommodate the growth of government services. New office space is required to provide efficient work centers for the increased staff and department reorganizations. What initially started as a new 20,000 square feet office has evolved to become a 75,000+ square feet office complex. The proposed project will consolidate twenty-two County agencies, currently servicing West Hawai'i residents, from scattered leasehold locations. The consolidation will offer a centralized facility where the public can access County services and will improve operating efficiencies and intergovernmental business. In order to execute a contract as soon as possible, the Department of Public Works is requesting a waiver from the Finance Committee and to have this bill heard at the next Council meeting scheduled for April 22, 2008. If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call the Department of Public Works. .6/`William Zba Director of Finance APPROVED: Q" F Harry Kim Mayor 111 Gomm, No. Enc. Ref. To3 Ref.

REQUEST: Amend Ordinance 07-83, the Capital Budget by adding an appropriation for: West Hawai'i Civic Center $ 25 ,000,000.00 B. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED): The department is requesting additional appropriation to cover anticipated lapsing appropriation and for unexpected growth in agency programs and corresponding space requirements. Replacement of inadequate facility: Existing facilities are no longer of adequate size to accommodate the growth of government services. New office space is required to provide efficient work centers for increased staff and departmental reorganizations. The proposed project initially started as a new 20,000 square feet office and has evolved to become a 75,000 + square feet office complex. The office complex will be located at the cross road of Kealakehe Parkway and Ana Keohokalole Highway in North Kona. Improve Operating Efficiency: The proposed project will consolidate twenty-two County agencies currently servicing West Hawai'i residences from various scatter leasehold locations. The consolidation of County agencies will offer the residents of West Hawai'i a centralized facility where they can access County services as well as improve operating efficiencies and intergovernmental business. The department requests that this Ordinance be waived from the Committee on Finance so that it will proceed for Council's approval in order for us to execute a contract as soon as possible.
