Honolulu, Hawaii

                  

 

RE:    H.B. No. 762

       H.D. 2

 

 

 

Honorable Donna Mercado Kim

President of the Senate

Twenty-Seventh State Legislature

Regular Session of 2013

State of Hawaii

 

Madam:

 

     Your Committee on Technology and the Arts, to which was referred H.B. No. 762, H.D. 2, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO WASHINGTON PLACE,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose and intent of this measure is to:

 

     (1)  Designate the Department of Accounting and General Services as the entity responsible for preserving and protecting Washington Place; and

 

     (2)  Establish the Washington Place trust fund for the preservation and protection of Washington Place.

 

     Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Department of Accounting and General Services.

 

     Your Committee finds that in 2012, funding for the management and operation of Washington Place was transferred to the Department of Accounting and General Services.  This measure codifies the transfer and requires that all rents and fees collected for the use of Washington Place be deposited into a trust fund for the repair, maintenance, and upkeep of the facility.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Technology and the Arts that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 762, H.D. 2, and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Ways and Means.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Technology and the Arts,
