STAND. COM. REP. NO. 595

 

Honolulu, Hawaii

                  

 

RE:    S.B. No. 808

       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. 808, S.D. 1, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO SALARIES,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose and intent of this measure is to improve the ability of the Board of Education to recruit and retain education officials, by removing the cap on the salaries of the deputy superintendent, assistant superintendents, and complex area superintendents that limited those salaries to not more than eighty per cent of the superintendent of education.

 

     Your Committee received written comments in opposition to this measure from one individual.

 

     Your Committee finds that this measure increases the Board of Education's flexibility to establish salaries that will attract a larger pool of qualified candidates for leadership positions within the Department of Education.

 

     Your Committee has amended this measure by changing its effective date to July 1, 2050, to encourage further discussion on this measure.

 

     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. 808, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 808, S.D. 2.

 

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