COMMITTEE ON FINANCE
DATE: February 6, 1997 Re: Comm. No. 105 "
PLACE: Councilroom
TIME: 11:10 A.M.
Chair and Members
Hawaii County Council
Hilo, Hawaii 96720
Your Committee on Finance- to which was referred Bill No. 36, reports as follows:
Bill No. 36, transmitted by Chief Engineer Donna Fay K. Kiyosaki, via Communication No. 105,
dated January 13, 1997, amends Chapter 20, Section 20-47(a) of the Hawaii County Code
dealing with the collection of solid waste tipping fees.
Bill No. 36 proposes a finance charge of 1.5% monthly (annual rate of 18%) on all fee balances
which aze sixty or more days overdue. In addition, access to County solid waste facilities may be
denied until the account is current. The Department of Public Works feels the proposed changes
will make the late chazge fees more reasonable and will benefit the County by enabling charges
to be automatically programmed into the billing system.
Your Committee on Finance is in accord with the purpose and intent of Bill No. 36 and
recommends it pass first reading.
