Re: County Special Fuel Tax
The provisions of Section 243-5, Hawai'i Revised Statutes, enable, empower, and
authorize the Council of the County of Hawai'i to determine the amount of the county fuel
tax. The County's current special fuel tax program was set in place in 1988 (Resolution
397-88) for a period of ten years, subsequently extended for another ten years
(Resolution 192-97), and continued at existing rates (Resolution 504-08). Resolution
504-08, adopted on March 25, 2008, inadvertently omitted any reference to liquefied
petroleum gas (LPG) in the operative extension provision. We are requesting to amend it
to include LPG at the previously-existing rates.
Enclosed is a resolution amending Resolution 504-08 relating to the County of Hawai'i
special fuel tax program to include reference to liquefied petroleum (LPG) at the
previously-existing rates.
If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call the Department of Public Works.
