the state will be responsible for the costs
Pretending it's not our money because it comes out of a different pocket.
There's also the fantasy that State won't somehow "claw back" matching funds, perhaps by reducing our share of the TAT. Again.
Punchline: County doesn't even know how much it has cost so far -- that $258K figure doesn't include overtime or MPD costs (Maui County made it very clear that they expect to be reimbursed by Hawaii County).
I wonder what the overall economic impact will be. Millions?
