STAND. COM. REP. NO. 1409

Honolulu, Hawaii

, 2004

RE: H.C.R. No. 87

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Second State Legislature

Regular Session of 2004

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 87 entitled:

"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REQUESTING THAT THE CITY AND COUNTY OF HONOLULU ENTERTAIN SOLICITED AND UNSOLICITED PROPOSALS FOR MASS TRANSIT,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to request the City and County of Honolulu to either issue a request for proposals to provide the island of Oahu with a mode of mass transit other than what it currently operates or to accept any unsolicited proposal to provide mass transit for Oahu from entities wishing to present such proposals.

No testimony was received on this measure; nevertheless, your Committee feels that this issue is one of great importance. This Committee has passed out several mass transit measures and continues to cooperate with the Governor's Task Force in its efforts to develop a mass transit system for Oahu. This measure continues the dialogue.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Transportation that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.C.R. No. 87 and recommends its adoption.

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