Dear Chairman Chung and Members of the County Council:
SUBJECT: Cost Items, Hawaii Government Employees Association(HGEA)
Bargaining Unit 04 and Employees Excluded from that Bargaining Unit
In accordance with Section 89-10(b), HRS, attached for Council action is a resolution
authorizing the appropriation in future fiscal years of funds to cover the negotiated increases to
cost items agreed to between the employers and the Hawaii Government Employees Association
(HGEA) for bargaining unit 04 and employees excluded from that bargaining unit.
The agreement covers the period from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2021. Cost items presented

new salary schedule and change in standby pay calculation.

Due to the statewide implications of this matter and the lead time needed to implement these

Sincerely,
4V'-N,
