In the current Budget Ordinance 18-68, $59,000 is appropriated in the Prosecuting Attorney's
Violence Against Women account. Additional federally-derived funds in the amount of$39,197 is
being provided by the State of Hawai`i Department of the Attorney General to fund a portion of
the salary expenses for a Deputy Prosecutor in the Office of the.Prosecuting Attorney.
Enclosed is a bill for an ordinance amending the Operating Budget by appropriating these
additional funds into the Office of the Prosecuting Attorney's Violence Against Women account,
bringing the total appropriation to $98,197.
The Office of the Prosecuting Attorney is requesting that this bill be waived from the Finance
Committee and be placed on the April 24, 2019 Council agenda in order to expedite the receipt of
these funds. If there are any questions,please do not hesitate to call Lee Lord of the Office of the
