Sir:
Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the House of Representatives to the amendments proposed by the Senate in H.B. No. 1828, H.D. 1, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO PUBLIC ORDER,"
having met, and after full and free discussion, has agreed to recommend and does recommend to the respective Houses the final passage of this bill in an amended form.
The purpose of this bill is to prohibit public urination and defecation in the downtown Honolulu area.
Your Committee on Conference finds that although public urination and defecation may be of general concern, they are concentrated in the downtown area.
Your Committee on Conference has amended this bill by:
(1) Providing a boundary description of the downtown Honolulu area;
(2) Increasing from eight hours to forty hours the maximum amount of community service work that may be imposed for the offense; and
(3) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the managers of your Committee on Conference that is attached to this report, your Committee on Conference is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1828, H.D. 1, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1828, H.D. 1, S.D. 1, C.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:
