STAND. COM. REP. 2501

Honolulu, Hawaii

, 2004

RE: S.B. No. 3074

S.D. 1

 

 

Honorable Robert Bunda

President of the Senate

Twenty-Second State Legislature

Regular Session of 2004

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Education, to which was referred S.B. No. 3074 entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO EDUCATION,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to appropriate funds for the planning, design, and construction of a new public high school in Kihei, Maui, and to dedicate land for the use of the Kihei public charter high school.

Testimony in support of this measure was submitted by the Department of Education.

Your Committee finds that there is a need to build a high school in Kihei, Maui to address the rapidly-growing population in that area. Your Committee notes that there is no local public high school in Kihei, and believes that this measure will appropriate the necessary funds to address that need.

Your Committee has made technical, nonsubstantive amendments to make all references in the measure consistent with the budget line items.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Education that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 3074, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 3074, S.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Ways and Means.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Education,
