STAND. COM. REP. NO. 214
Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: S.B. No. 210
Honorable Shan S. Tsutsui
President of the Senate
Twenty-Sixth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2011
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Human Services, to which was referred S.B. No. 210 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE PALOLO CHINESE HOME,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to authorize the issuance of general obligation bonds and to appropriate funds as a grant to Palolo Chinese Home for the expansion, construction, and rebuilding of its facilities. The intent of this measure is to provide funds to the Palolo Chinese Home to allow it to expand its programs and services for Hawaii's growing elderly population and others in need.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Palolo Chinese Home.
Your Committee finds that for more than one hundred years, the Palolo Chinese Home has been providing shelter and care to Hawaii's senior citizens. Your Committee further finds that as the Palolo Chinese Home continues to increase its programming and services to address the needs of the community it serves, this measure will provide much needed funding for the Palolo Chinese Home's expansion plans.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Human Services that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 210 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 Human Services,
