HRS §46-51
County securities in mainland banks
This section lets a county's finance director, with council approval, put county-owned securities in mainland banks. The state finance director can also hold them for safekeeping, but the county pays the costs. Money from those securities is not treated as a deposit for 30 days after the bank receives it.
