DATE: September 20, 2011 Re: Comm. No. 354/Res. No. 148-11

Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred Resolution No. 148-11, reports as follows:
Resolution No. 148-11, transmitted by Finance Director Nancy Crawford via Communication No. 354,
dated September 7, 2011, authorizes the payment of funds of a later fiscal year and of more than one
fiscal year for a multi-year lease of real property. This proposed resolution will authorize the
Department of Public Works to enter into a multi-year lease for an additional two (2) years, and rent
set at $600 per month, starting on August 1, 2012 and ending on July 31, 2014. The premises is located
at the North side of the West Hawai`i Traffic Facility. This lease property address is 81-6394
Mamalahoa Highway, Kona, Hawaii; Tax Map Key (3)8-1-016:039 (por.) and the use of a forty (40)
foot storage container located on the site for the purpose of parking vehicles, and for storage of
equipment and supplies.
Council Member Hoffmann addressed the concern that according to the resolution, sufficient funds be
appropriated in future years to run the facility, however, it seems that the real need is for the five
people that would be assigned to the facility.
Director of Public Works Warren Lee appeared before Your Committee and provided information that
a new Traffic Signs and Marking Crew would be assigned to the facility and these positions have been
funded and budgeted for.
Your Committee on Finance is in accord with the purpose and intent of Resolution No. 148-11, and
recommends its adoption.
