Re: Capital Budget
Enclosed is a bill for an ordinance amending the Capital Budget to add the Village 9 Homeless
and Affordable Rental Project and increase the account's appropriation by $46,000, bringing the
total to $250,000. This additional appropriation will be funded by The State of Hawaii, Hawaii
Housing Finance and Development Corporation (HHFDC).
Due to the urgency of addressing homelessness issues, the Office of the Mayor requests that a
breach be authorized to submit this bill after the June 19, 2019 submission deadline, and to waive
it from the Finance Committee in order for it to be placed on the July 9, 2019 Council agenda. If
there are any questions,please do not hesitate to call Roy Takemoto at 961-8565.

A. REQUEST:
Please prepare a bill for an ordinance to amend Ordinance No. 19-74, the Capital Improvement Budget, to
appropriate $46,000 for the Village 9 Homeless and Affordable Housing Project that would bring the total
appropriation for this project to $250,000.
Please also request a waiver of committee due to the urgency to address the homeless issues.
B. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED
The Council authorized the Mayor to enter into an agreement by Resolution No. 523-18 relating to a
Memorandum of Agreement that documents the State's commitment to lease 15-20 acres of a 35.774-acre
site to the County for a homeless facility and to reimburse the planning expenses (i.e., master plan and
environmental assessment). HHFDC would use the balance of the site for an affordable rental project. Both
projects would be planned together to optimize infrastructure requirements and assess the cumulative
impacts. The Council appropriated $184,000.00 in Ordinance No. 18-69, last fiscal year's capital budget, to
be funded by the State. The State HHFDC previously agreed to fund an additional $20,000 to conduct a
charrette to develop the master plans. The current request is to create an appropriation to receive from
HHFDC an additional $46,000 for a topographic and boundary survey for the entire site and other
development costs.
