Re: Operating Budget
Recovery from the 2018 Lava Flow continues to cost'the County millions of dollars since lava •
began to flow in Lower Puna in May. Pursuant to the State's issuance of an Emergency
Proclamation dated May 3, 2018 and four Supplemental Proclamations dated May 9, 2018, June 5,
August 3, and October 2, 2018, an additional $10,000,000 was authorized to be transferred to the
County of Hawai`i. These funds are to be used to provide immediate relief necessary to protect the
health, safety and welfare of area residents, and for relocation planning for residents and
agricultural enterprises adversely impacted by the volcanic eruption.
Enclosed is a resolution to enter into an agreement to accept these funds. Also enclosed is a bill
for an ordinance amending the Operating Budget by appropriating this $10,000,000 grant. We are
requesting that a breach be granted in order to submit this resolution and bill after the October 30,
2018 submission deadline and that they be waived from the Finance Committee to be placed on the
November 20, 2018 Council agenda in order to ensure that these monies are available to be spent
as quickly as possible. If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call Kay Oshiro,
Controller, at 961-8425.
