Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred Resolution No. 289-17, reports as follows:
Resolution No. 289-17, transmitted by Finance Director Collins Tomei, via Communication
No. 440 dated August 31, 2017, authorizes the payment of funds of a later fiscal year and of more
than one fiscal year for a multi-year lease for the Hawaii County Police Department.
This agreement authorizes the Mayor to enter into a five-year lease for new Taser conducted
electrical weapons and associated equipment to be used by the Police Department at a total cost of
$385,344.49. The equipment would replace obsolete models and become the property of the
department upon completion of the terms of the lease.
Lt. Thomas Shopay was asked and responded that the Tasers will replace the older ones that are
being phased out and they will now outfit the whole department.
Your Committee on Finance is in accord with the purpose and intent of Resolution No. 289-17,
and recommends its adoption.
