STAND. COM. REP. NO. 2911

Honolulu, Hawaii

RE: S.B. No. 2890

S.D. 1

Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirty-Second State Legislature

Regular Session of 2024

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B. No. 2890, S.D. 1, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose and intent of this measure is to implement and appropriate moneys for a statewide system to track the status of the capital improvement projects of each department and agency.

Your Committee received written comments in support of this measure from the Department of Accounting and General Services, Department of Labor and Industrial Relations Office of Community Services, and Office of Enterprise Technology Services.

Your Committee finds that implementing a statewide tracking system for capital improvement projects will help ease the administrative burden of manually tracking expenditures for those projects.

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. 2890, S.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

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