HCC §2-102
Travel expense rules yield to union contracts and state law
Read the official text at hawaiicounty.gov ↗This section says that if the county's travel expense rules conflict with a negotiated union contract or with state law (chapter 89C), the contract or state law wins. It does not create any new travel rules itself. It only sets the order of priority when there is a conflict.
