HCC §32-61
Who signs county bonds and when signatures are valid
Read the official text at hawaiicounty.gov ↗This section says who must sign bonds issued by the county, unless the bond ordinance says otherwise. It allows signatures to be handwritten or printed copies. If an official leaves office before the bonds are delivered, their signature still counts as if they were still in office.

The ordinance, as written (Hawaiʻi County) — Signing of bonds
A copy, taken August 21, 2026. The version published by Hawaiʻi County is the one that governs, and it may have changed since. Check it before relying on anything here.
Unless otherwise specified in the ordinance providing for issuance of the bonds, the bonds shall be signed by the mayor of the County and countersigned by the director of finance or the director’s deputy. All signatures on the bonds may be manual or facsimile. If any officer whose signature appears on the bonds ceases to be that officer before the delivery of the bonds, this person’s signature is as effective as if this person had remained in office.
