TAX FOUNDATION OF HAWAII
The Tax Foundation of Hawaii is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, educational organization established to foster efficiency and economy in government by encouraging an equitable tax system that promotes economic growth and stability. The Foundation is also directed to assist in the improvement of state and local public administration, and to serve and educate the people of Hawaii about issues in current public finance.
A private organization, the Foundation receives its financial support from over 270 corporate and individual members. Although often mistaken for a government agency, the Foundation is specifically prohibited from receiving or using public funds to further its mission, which contributes to its objectivity and independence in analyzing government revenues and expenditures.
In addition to GOVERNMENT IN HAWAII, the Foundation publishes a two-part summary. The LEGISLATIVE REVIEW, released after each legislative session summarizing all measures approved by the state legislature. During the session, THE LEGISLATIVE TAX BILL SERVICE analyzes all tax measures introduced by the legislature. TAX TOPICS, a quarterly newsletter, presents current developments in state and local taxes and public finance,
GOOD GOVERNMENT DEPENDS ON AN INFORMED PUBLIC
FOREWORD
Hawaii’s economy continues to stumble along while public policy makers and administrators hold their breaths in hope that economic recovery is just around the comer. Unfortunately, these policy makers and administrators seem unable to read the tea leaves in the almost empty cup that beg radical change. It is almost as if public leaders are waiting for some savior to drop out of the heavens.
Unfortunately, economic recovery continues to be hampered by a heavily taxed environment which is fraught with a maze of costly regulations. This symptom is no more readily apparent than in Hawaii’s number one industry. Tourism. A recent survey of various destinations around the globe puts Hawaii at the top in the annual operating cost of a hotel room. Hawaii’s direct competitors, Mexico and the Caribbean, report annual operating costs at less than half of what’s due in Hawaii. While there are a variety of factors which contribute to that cost, the largest component is that which is attributable to government through taxes, regulations and other mandates which must be recovered in the rental price of the room. Until Hawaii can bring its costs more into line with its competitors, both for the visitor industry as well as for those who are seeking to start a new business in Hawaii, the potential for making a profit, let alone surviving in this environment, is dismal.
With the economy in the tank for such a prolonged period, it becomes increasingly imperative that decision makers keep a finger on the state’s fiscal pulse. The information contained herein provides the basic landscape for the fiscal pulse. Again, the delay of the publication of this year’s GOVERNMENT IN HAWAII is a result of, in one case, no release of data by the federal government. However, the information contained in this year’s publication is still critical to an understanding of the economy and the government in Hawaii.
We take this opportunity to extend our sincerest appreciation to the many agencies, departments and individuals who cooperated in making the data available for GOVERNMENT IN HAWAII. We also extend a very sincere mahalo to all of the supporting members of the Foundation without whom this publication or the work of the Foundation would not be possible.

HAWAII’S ECONOMY
The Hawaii economy struggled through another year of feeble growth during 1996. On the plus side, visitor arrivals increased by 3% to 6.8 million. However, these numbers were offset by a 7% reduction on total visitor expenditures. The distribution of tourist arrivals was altered slightly as a Japanese carrier received approval for direct flights from Tokyo to Kona in mid-1996. This helped visitor arrivals in Hawaii County to rise sharply during 1996 albeit perhaps at the expense of other Hawaii destinations. Employment in the highly compensated construction trades continued to slide, falling to 22,100 by the end of 1996. Construction employment peaked during 1990 at 34,100 and has declined each subsequent year.
Military expenditures, considered the third largest sector of the Hawaiian economy, grew by 12.3% during 1996. Construction and renovation of on-base housing were responsible for much of the increase. The growth in military expenditures was remarkable given the anticipated reduction-jn-force in civilian employment at Pearl Harbor and the closure of the Barber’s Point Naval facility on Cahu.
Agricultural employment fell from 7,700 to 7,300 as the final harvests were made from two sugar plantations, one on Cahu and one on Kauai. Conversion of former sugar lands to diversified agriculture, including coffee and papaya, continued at a slow but steady pace. Investors anticipated using land formerly occupied by the now defunct Hamakua Sugar Company in Kau to develop a lumber and forestry products industry in Hawaii.
Slow growth in the Hawaiian economy led to weaker tax collections for the state. Per capita state and local taxes fell by $126 to $3,058. However, since the tax burden gap between Hawaii and the state with the next highest tax burden was so large, Hawaii maintained its ranking as the sixth highest taxed state in the nation in terms of state and local government taxes. Countering the trend in lower per capita tax collections, fee revenue increased by $50 per capita.
Total personal income (TPI) in Hawaii increased a minuscule 1.6% during 1996. This growth was the lowest percentage growth in personal income in the U.S. Wage and salary income increased a meager 0.9%. Income from dividends, interest, and rent rose at a healthier 4.2% clip. Other labor income fell by 3.7%. Other labor income includes benefits such as health insurance, pension benefits and profit sharing plans provided by employers. Lower workers’ compensation costs due to recently implemented reforms by the state of Hawaii appear to have contributed to the decline in other labor income.

HOW GOVERNMENT GETS ITS MONEY
Government gets the money to pay for public services primarily through taxes, fees, and licenses. State and local governments also receive grants and other aid from the federal government. State government revenues topped $5.7 billion in FY 1996. This total was a surprising 12% higher than the $5.1 billion recorded in FY 1995. Federal grants increased by $295 million, up 30% during FY 1996. Two-thirds of the $295 million increase was the result of a bookkeeping change involving the recognition of food stamp benefits.
Of total state government revenues, omitting federal government transfers, $4.5 billion was directly collected from Hawaii taxpayers. Taxes and license revenues comprised 56% or $3.1 billion and fees and other revenue sources amounted to 44%. Included in “other revenue sources” were items such as rents paid on state lands, charges for services such as water irrigation, interest earnings, etc.
The state government has increased its reliance on nontax revenues to add new programs or to bolster funding for existing public programs. For example, during FY 1986, non-tax revenue sources comprised 28.7% of revenues paid by Hawaii taxpayers. During FY 1996, the percentage had grown to 30.1%. State government turned to non-tax revenue sources as taxpayers have resisted attempts to increase the general excise and personal income taxes. Imposing new fees or increasing existing fees are viewed as a politically palatable method to pay for public services. The downside is that tax revenues were shifted to other programs. The net result: the tax burdenremained high as the fee burden grew.
The counties rely heavily upon the real properly tax to finance local government expenditures. Property tax revenues comprised 84% of county tax revenues and 44% of all county government revenues. Faced by declining property values and property tax bases, the counties have also turned to non-tax sources to finance government expenditures. One example, the City & County of Honolulu enacted a slew of fee hikes approved by the City Council in 1995. One of the fees was on beach access to one of Hawaii’s most notable public attractions, Hanauma Bay. The funds formerly used to maintain the beach was diverted to other City programs.

HOW GOVERNMENT SPENDS YOUR MONEY
state government operating expenditures topped $6 billion during fiscal year 1996. This amount was 3.9% higher than 1995 despite the stagnant economic conditions in Hawaii. Public welfare expenditures remained the largest function for state government for the second year in a row. Expenditures for public welfare rose by 3.1% to $1.04 billion. The economy and the poor job market were no doubt major factors in the increased demand for social welfare sen/ices.
Declining state tax revenues forced cutbacks in other programs. Even programs designated as being “high priority” by policymakers felt the pinch. Public school (K-12) expenditures fell by 3.5% to $863 million. Expenditures on higher education fell by 7.3% to $548 million. Not counted within these categories are overhead expenses such as pension and health insurance benefits or debt service for facilities required by these programs.
Pension contributions on behalf of state employees increased by 40% to $268 million in 1996. The increased funding requirement was due to lower investment gains. State lawmakers engaged in financial engineering and amended actuarial assumptions for projected wage increases. This lowered the retirement system’s unfunded obligation from $1.6 billion to $1.2 billion.
County government budgets were squeezed on the revenue side by falling property assessments and tax revenues and on the expenditure side by higher nondiscretionary expenses. Total county government expenditures rose at a 0.6% rate, slower than the state’s inflation rate.
Among the counties’ non-discretionary cost items are pension contributions and debt service payments. The pension system for county government employees is part of the public employee retirement system which administers the plan for state government employees. Given the increased funding requirements for the state, it was not surprising that county pension funding costs rose 31% to $97 million in fiscal 1996.
Overall debt service costs increased 8.2% to $186 million in fiscal 1996. The counties, Honolulu in particular, have become more reliant on issuing debt to pay for public infrastructure. County officials have found it difficult to finance capital improvements with cash as county revenue growth remained sluggish in 1996. Another reason was the low market interest rates for municipal bonds which some viewed as a bargain. Finally, some counties attempted to take advantage of the dormant Hawaii construction industry by using debt to pump up demand. These factors have contributed to boosting the share of the budget now claimed by debt service. Counting all fund types, debt service payments have risen from 6% of total operating expenditures in fiscal 1986 to more than 13% in fiscal 1996.

LONG TERM PUBLIC DEBT
G overnm ents m ake use of long term debt to finance capital improvement projects which benefit taxpayers directly and indirectly. Bonds are used to construct facilities like the state convention center and schools or to pay legal settlem ents.
State government in Hawaii is the largest issuer of long term debt as it is responsible for most of the capital intensive governm ent program s. At D ecem ber 31, 1996, the outstanding debt of state government totaled more than $4.8 billion in general obligation bonds and revenue bonds. The bonds financed capital projects in transportation programs, public schools, and prisons. State g overnm ent also borrows money to m ake capital available for purposes such as subsidized hom e m ortgages.
The county governm ents had $2 .0 billion in long term bonds outstanding at D ecem ber 31, 1996. In the past, counties relied to a g re a te r extent on cash financing to pay for capital investm ent. H ow ever, as the dem and for public services increased, operating budgets becam e tighter and the counties shifted the em phasis of their capital program to debt financing in order to m eet infrastructure needs. Sanitation and recreation functions comprise the largest share of the counties’ capital budgets.
D ebt limits m andated in the state constitution prevent state and county governments from issuing too much debt. The limitation m echanism s differ for the state and counties. The state debt limit places a cap on the am ount of debt service payments, principal plus in terest, which is due. The cap is set at 18.5% of general fund tax revenues averaged over three years. The county debt limit mechanism works by capping the amount of debt outstanding to 15% of net assessed valuation of property within its jurisdiction. The difference in the debt limit is due to the different tax bases on which the s ta te and counties rely. State tax revenue depends on incom e earned and sales transactions. County tax revenues rely on property values.
At July 1, 1996, the state debt limit w as $ 562 .6 million. The am ount of debt which w as counted against the limit w as $ 379 .5 million, leaving a debt margin of $183.1 million equal to 32% of the limit. Highlighting the unrealistic debt limit for county governm ents, county debt counted against the limit w as 1.9% of net assessed property values, well below the constitutionally 15% limitation. The 13.1% county debt margin represents more than $15 billion dollars, more than three times the am ount owed by state governm ent’s indebtedness, which the counties could issue against the limit. Yet debt service payments on bonds issued already com prise betw een 10% and 15% of county operating expenditures.
