To: Charter Commission
Subject: Director of Public Works be a registered engineer amendment
Honorable Members of the Hawaii County Charter Commission:
I would like to submit written testimony against the proposed CA -26 Draft for amending the County of Hawaii Charter. A
registered engineer (PE) is ethically obligated to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the public, and must always
put the public's interest before all others, including personal, company, organizational, or political. This in my opinion, is
the lens a public works director should be looking through when evaluating the critical issues that affect our community
well-being. With the requirement for licensure waived, we risk other factors influencing the decision-making process at
high levels.
Thank you very much for your time and your consideration
Daniel Flores
