REPORT OF THE
COMMITTEE ON FINANCE
Re: Comm. No. 197 /Res. No. 86 -13
Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred Resolution No. 86 -13, reports as follows:
Resolution No. 86 -13, transmitted by Finance Director Nancy Crawford, via Communication No. 197
dated March 8, 2013, authorizes the payment of funds of a later fiscal year and of more than one fiscal
year for a multi -year lease for one (1) multi - function copier for the Department of Parks and Recreation.
The copier will be used by the Coordinated Services for Elderly section at the Aging and Disability
Resource Center.
Mr. Kanuha expressed that doing individual leases would cost the County more money. He suggested
having an agreement, with one company, would help bring costs down.
Mr. Onishi stated that the County departments and divisions currently have different copiers and printers
which may not be cartridge compatible. Streamlining to one type of copier and printer may help save
money and be more compatible and useful to the County.
Finance Director Nancy Crawford agreed that a bid process could be a possibility due to the history of
continuous replacement of copiers; however, she noted that the departments have unique requirements
based on volume and use. She confirmed that there has been discussion on this issue.
Pursuant to Section 10 -11, Hawaii County Charter, any contract, lease or other obligation requiring
payment of funds from the appropriations of a later fiscal year or of more than one fiscal year shall be
made or approved by resolution.
Your Committee on Finance is in accord with the purpose and intent of Resolution No. 86 -13, and
recommends its adoption.
