shared-ride taxi services, County operated curb to curb van
services, or County operated non-scheduled bus services.
(4) The County wide transportation k6kua zone shall terminate on
[December 31,2009.] June 30, 2011.
(5) Within one year of the k6kua zone's effective date, and again not
later than ninety days prior to [December 31, 2009,] June 30, 2011,
the transit administrator shall report to the Hawai'i County council
on the impact of its implementation.

underscored. In printing this ordinance, the brackets, bracketed and stricken material and
underscoring need not be included.
SECTION 4. If any provision of this ordinance, or the application thereof to any person
or circumstance, is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications
of the ordinance which can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to
this end, the provisions of this ordinance are declared to be severable.
SECTION 5. This ordinance shall take effect upon its approval.
