COM. REP. NO. 1545-24
Honolulu, Hawaii
, 2024
RE: H.C.R. No. 49
Honorable Scott K. Saiki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2024
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 49 entitled:
"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE CITY AND COUNTY OF HONOLULU TO CONDUCT A SIDEWALK FEASIBILITY STUDY ALONG KALIHI STREET FROM KAMANAIKI STREET TO KALIHI VALLEY PARK,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The
purpose of this measure is to request
the City and County of Honolulu to conduct a sidewalk feasibility study along
Kalihi Street from Kamanaiki Street to Kalihi Valley Park.
Your Committee did not receive any written testimony on this
measure.
Your
Committee finds that because much of the infrastructure in Kalihi Valley was
constructed before modern standards for road construction were developed, most
of the upper portion of Kalihi Street lacks sidewalks. Your Committee further finds that because of
the lack of sidewalks, there are many dangerous locations along Kalihi Street
where pedestrians are required to walk in the street itself. This measure is intended to explore the
feasibility of making significant improvements to Kalihi Street's sidewalks,
including the removal of telephone poles in certain sections.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Transportation that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.C.R. No. 49 and recommends its adoption.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Transportation,
|
