Environmental Management Director Lono Tyson said while there is $10 million in the CIP budget for the Kona landfill in fiscal 2011 - 2012, it does not include the clean closure costs, which he estimates to be approximately $40 million. Council Member Greenwell said his contacts in Washington D.C. informed him that there is money available, and the details will be forthcoming. Your Committee on Finance is in accordance with the purpose and intent of Resolution 255-09, and recommends its adoption. kk AYES NOES A&E EX ENRIQUES X FORD X GREENWELL X HOFFMANN X IKEDA X NAEOLE X ONISHI X YAGONG X YOSHIMOTO X Respectfully submitted, COMMITTEE ON FINANCE Anv42 ~ DONALD IKEDA, VICE CHAIR Fe REPORT NO. 104 ADOPTED: NOV n 4 20Q9
