STAND. COM. REP. NO. 675

 

Honolulu, Hawaii

                  

 

RE:    S.B. No. 121

       S.D. 2

 

 

 

Honorable Shan S. Tsutsui

President of the Senate

Twenty-Sixth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2011

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B. No. 121, S.D. 1, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO HEALTH,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose and intent of this measure is to authorize the Hawaii Health Systems Corporation to lease Kula Hospital's medical clinic, and any furnishings and equipment agreed upon, to Malama I Ke Ola Health Center.  

 

     Specifically, this measure authorizes Hawaii Health Systems Corporation to lease the Kula Hospital medical clinic to Malama I Ke Ola Health Center for $1 per year for a period of ten years, with the option to renew the lease for up to two additional terms of five years each.  This measure also provides for the lease of equipment, furnishings, and fixtures within the clinic, as agreed between the parties, for $1 per year.

 

     Your Committee finds that leasing Kula Hospital to the Malama I Ke Ola Health Center would allow the continuation of a crucial source of health care and social services to homeless, poor, and underserved individuals on Maui.

 

     Your Committee has amended this measure by:

 

     (1)  Changing the amounts of the property and equipment leases to unspecified amounts;

 

     (2)  Changing the effective date to July 1, 2050, to facilitate further discussion on this issue; and

 

     (3)  Making technical nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity, consistency, and style.

 

     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 is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 121, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 121, S.D. 2.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
