Additional funding is being provided by the State to be used for salaries and wages. The Hawai`i Fire Department requests that this appropriation be increased by an additional $563,436. Enclosed is a bill for an ordinance amending the Operating Budget by appropriating these additional funds into the Hawai`i Fire Department's Fire EMS S&W account, bringing the total appropriation to $11,427,955. The Hawai`i Fire Department is requesting that this bill be waived from the Finance Committee and be placed on the June 5, 2018 Council agenda and that the Council waive their five-day hold- for-reconsideration period in order to ensure this bill be processed during the current fiscal year.
