Committee on Health
Hawaii State Legislature
Dear Chair Mizuno, Vice-Chair Kobayashi, and Committee Members:
RE: SB 2618, SD2 Relating to Ambulances.
SB 2618, SD2 would provide an ALS ambulance for the Makalei Fire Station,
which is several miles from the nearest existing ambulance and half an hour or more
from the nearest hospital.
I believe such an ambulance is warranted and hope you can find room in your
budget to act favorably on SB 2618, SD2.
Respectfully Submitted,
7 '' GLn l.tN \-
Harry Kim
