Bill Summary
Authorizes the use of moneys in certain special and revolving funds for operation and administration costs of the programs.
AI Summary
This bill allows money from certain special or revolving funds, which are separate accounts holding funds for specific purposes, to be used for the operational and administrative costs of the programs they are associated with. This change is intended to give government agencies more flexibility to adapt to fluctuating revenue projections, particularly in light of changing federal policies that can impact funding for essential community services. Specifically, the bill amends existing laws related to the Hawaii strategic development corporation, the Hawaii community development special fund, strategic development programs, and the school facilities special fund to permit the use of these dedicated funds for personnel and other operating expenses.
