STAND. COM. REP. NO. 3723
Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: H.C.R. No. 75
S.D. 1
Honorable Robert Bunda
President of the Senate
Twenty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2006
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 75, S.D. 1, entitled:
"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION RELATING TO MCKINLEY HIGH SCHOOL PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND ATHLETIC FACILITIES,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to request the Department of Education to consider building a new facility for the McKinley High School physical education and athletic program at the former Kapiolani Community College campus.
The measure also requests the Department to consider utilizing the design-build process in constructing the facility and to report its findings to the Legislature.
Your Committee finds that the former site of Kapiolani Community College near McKinley High School has been vacant or underutilized for many years. Since the site is under the control of the Department of Education, it behooves the Department to consider utilizing the site to address issues relating to maintenance and insufficient space at McKinley High School's athletic facilities.
Your Committee also finds that the Department might consider using the design-build process of structural development, wherein one party designs and builds a structure while making cost-saving modifications to allow for a more expedient and efficient method of construction. The design-build process may result in McKinley High School acquiring its athletic facilities much quicker and at less cost than traditional methods of construction.
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 concurs with the intent and purpose of H.C.R. No. 75, S.D. 1, and recommends its adoption.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
