STAND. COM. REP. 1293
Honolulu, Hawaii
, 2003
RE: H.C.R. No. 117
Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2003
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Education, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 117 entitled:
"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION TO ENTER INTO A REAL ESTATE TRANSACTION AGREEMENT FOR A NEW ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN KAHULUI, MAUI,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to request the Department of Education to enter into a real estate transaction agreement for a new elementary school in Maui.
Your Committee received testimony in favor of this measure from the Maui County Office of the Mayor, a member of the Maui County Council, and Maui Lani School, LLC. The Department of Education submitted testimony in support with reservations.
Your Committee finds that the central Maui community is rapidly growing. To address the community's needs the Department of Education and a private developer are currently discussing plans for a new school. Your Committee further finds that the opening of a school would be expedited if the Department of Education and the developer were to enter into a real estate transaction agreement.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Education that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.C.R. No. 117 and recommends that it be referred to the Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Education,
____________________________ CINDY EVANS, Acting Chair |
