STAND. COM. REP. 2655

Honolulu, Hawaii

, 2004

RE: S.B. No. 3069

S.D. 2

 

 

Honorable Robert Bunda

President of the Senate

Twenty-Second State Legislature

Regular Session of 2004

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B. No. 3069, S.D. 1, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE STATE CAPITOL,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to transfer exclusive management of the entire state capitol building and grounds, including parking facilities, to the joint legislative management committee.

Your Committee finds that there are management concerns regarding the state capitol building. Concerns about public accessibility, such as parking and access to the building, have been expressed by the public and have not been addressed by the Department of Accounting and General Services, which currently manages the building.

Your Committee believes that this measure will provide the necessary means to address many of the management concerns regarding the state capitol building.

Your Committee has amended this measure by making technical, nonsubstantive amendments.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 3069, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 3069, S.D. 2.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
