to the County of Hawaii for the construction of a Hilo Youth
Shelter Facility; and

State or the County at a token or nominal rent, a portion of its
land where the present Hilo Interim Home is located for the

augment the neighboring Hilo Interim Home operations; and

upon the overall youth shelter program on this island and this
goal can be achieved by allowing the use of this appropriation to
