A BILL FOR AN ACT
RELATING TO THE NATIONAL GUARD.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
PART
I
SECTION
1. By
establishing its facilities and presence within communities throughout the
State, it is the intent of the State that the department of defense serve and
be an integral part of the community. To
that end, it is the policy of the legislature to lend out department of defense
facilities, in accordance with Hawaii Revised Statutes and department of
defense requirements, on a non-interference basis, for temporary public use and
rental by organizations such as civic and veterans groups, and non-profit
entities within the community. The rental moneys collected are intended to
cover the costs of utilities, including but not limited to water, sewer, and
electricity, any supplies, including but not limited to soap, paper towels, and
toilet paper, all related state personnel or staffing costs necessary to open,
close, clean, maintain, or repair the facility, and the wear-and-tear on the
facility associated with the use of the facility. However, in accordance with section 121-19,
Hawaii Revised Statutes, relating to regulations governing armories, etc., all
moneys received from the rentals shall be
deposited into the general fund of the State, with required amounts returned to
the office of Hawaiian affairs in accordance with Act 178, Session Laws of
Hawaii 2006. This situation requires the
department of defense to utilize operating funds to cover the costs of
utilities, supplies, and personnel for the temporary public use of its
facilities by the community.
The
intent and purpose of this Act is to clarify that the department of defense may
continue its community involvement by lending out
its facilities without incurring a loss to its operating
budget by clarifying that the department of defense may retain revenues
collected to cover the cost of utilities, supplies, personnel, and wear-and-tear
associated with the lending out of its facilities and that any net proceeds
collected associated with the lending out of its facilities will be returned to
the general fund, with required amounts returned to the office of Hawaiian
affairs.
SECTION 2. Section 121-19, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is
amended to read as follows:
"§121-19 Regulations governing armories, etc. Any law to the contrary notwithstanding, the
adjutant general may make regulations to establish procedures governing the
care and custody of [armories, rifle ranges, reservations and installations]
department of defense facilities that are either set aside to the
department of defense or on license from the federal government. The adjutant general may permit the use [of
or may temporarily rent to civic, community, veterans and other nonprofit
public organizations and groups, such portions of armories, rifle ranges,
reservations and installations as will not interfere with the military use
thereof.] or temporary rental of portions of department of defense
facilities by the following entities or for the following purposes, as
applicable:
(1) A national guard unit or other county, state, or
federal government agency sponsoring or co-sponsoring a meeting, class, or
other activity;
(2) A charitable organization, as defined in section 467B-
1, conducting a community or group activity;
(3) The billeting of personnel in conjunction with
sanctioned events, including:
(A) Agency-sponsored conferences or classes;
(B) Agency-sponsored athletic or recreation programs;
(C) Government-sponsored public hearings or meetings; or
(D) Unit-sponsored youth organizations and activities;
(4) The hosting of athletic events or competitions;
(5) Events sponsored by a public school including classes,
dances, plays, and concerts; and
(6) Film production enterprise activities that are
promoted and coordinated through the film industry branch of the department of
business, economic development, and tourism;
provided that the use or
temporary rental does not interfere with any military use. The adjutant general shall establish the
rentals to be charged for their use and all [moneys] net proceeds
received from the rentals shall be deposited into the general fund of the
State. Chapter 91 shall not apply."
PART
