MODERATE

This bill consolidates three separate conference center revolving funds into a single University of Hawaii Conference Center Revolving Fund. It repeals the individual funds for the University of Hawaii at Hilo and community colleges, centralizing financial administration across all campuses. The changes streamline fund management and allow for unified reporting and oversight of conference-related expenses system-wide.

Scope change

The bill's scope expanded from three separate, campus-specific funds to a single, system-wide revolving fund that covers all University of Hawaii campuses and operating units.

SCOPE

Repealed the University of Hawaii at Hilo Conference Center Revolving Fund and the Community College Conference Center Revolving Fund, which previously operated as separate entities.

Established a single University of Hawaii Conference Center Revolving Fund that applies to all university campuses and operating units, replacing the previous fragmented structure.

FISCAL

Added a new provision (Section 4) that requires all unencumbered funds from the repealed Hilo and community college funds to lapse into the new consolidated fund as of July 1, 2025.

Added an appropriation for fiscal year 2025-2026 to support conference, seminar, and course programs across the entire university system.

REQUIREMENT

Changed reporting requirements from campus-specific annual reports to a single university-wide report submitted to the legislature within twenty days prior to each regular session.
