SENATE RESOLUTION

 

requesting the department of business, economic development, and tourism to develop a master plan for the honolulu waterfront.

 

WHEREAS, the Honolulu waterfront is a special public asset that serves as the State's principal harbor and provides boundless opportunities for economic development, public enjoyment, and civil identity; and

WHEREAS, the uncoordinated, piece-meal development of the area will likely give rise to inefficiency in waterfront management and hinder business growth; and

WHEREAS, the waterfront master plan was last reviewed in 1989; and

WHEREAS, in order to make best use of these opportunities, a new master plan for the development of the waterfront must be formulated; now, therefore,

BE IT RESOLVED by the Senate of the Twenty-First Legislature of the State of Hawaii, Regular Session of 2002, that the office of planning of the department of business, economic development, and tourism is directed to draft a master plan for the Honolulu waterfront; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that public hearings shall be held to help develop the plan; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the department of business, economic development, and tourism shall transmit the master plan to the Legislature no later than twenty days before the convening of the Regular Session of 2003; and

 

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a certified copy of this Resolution be transmitted to the director of business, economic development, and tourism.
