Voters in Honolulu are considering several proposed amendments to the City Charter for the November 3 general election. Questions 11 through 14 specifically address dedicated funds, which receive 0.5% of the city’s annual property-tax revenues. Question 11 proposes allowing the Clean Water and Natural Lands Fund and the Climate Resiliency Fund to award grants to federal income tax-exempt non-profit organizations. Question 12 proposes allowing these funds, including the Affordable Housing Fund, to receive funding from federal, state, philanthropic, and other sources.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The amendments would alter how dedicated city funds are financed and distributed. If approved, Question 12 would allow funds to diversify their funding beyond property taxes, while Question 11 would broaden the ability of the Clean Water and Natural Lands Fund and the Climate Resiliency Fund to execute their missions through grants to non-profits.
