Council postpones performance audit discussion on bridge and culvert maintenance to Jan. 21 committee meeting
Summary
A performance audit of the Department of Public Works’ bridge and culvert maintenance (Performance Audit 2024‑3) was transmitted by County Auditor Tyler J. Benner; the council voted to postpone discussion to the Jan. 21 committee meeting.
The County Auditor transmitted Performance Audit 2024‑3, a review of the Department of Public Works’ bridge and culvert maintenance efforts, to the Council pursuant to section 3‑18(d)(2) of the Hawaii County Charter. The audit document was dated Nov. 25, 2024 and identified Tyler J. Benner as the county auditor.
Council members noted the current DPW director was not available to remain for discussion and the auditor’s presentation required additional staff presence. Council Chair Inaba moved to postpone consideration of the audit to the Jan. 21 committee meeting; the motion was seconded (second not specified in the transcript). The postponement passed with eight votes in favor and Council member Kimball excused.
No substantive audit discussion or decisions on corrective actions occurred at this meeting; the council approved postponement so the current DPW director and other staff could attend the future committee session.
