STAND. COM. REP. NO. 1339

Honolulu, Hawaii

RE: S.R. No. 107

Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2021

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Public Safety, Intergovernmental, and Military Affairs, to which was referred S.R. No. 107 entitled:

"SENATE RESOLUTION URGING THE CITY AND COUNTY OF HONOLULU TO INSTALL A ROOF COVERING THE RESTROOM FACILITIES AT PUULOA BEACH PARK,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose and intent of this measure is to urge the City and County of Honolulu to install a roof covering the restroom facilities at Puuloa Beach Park.

Your Committee did not receive any testimony on this measure.

Your Committee finds that Puuloa Beach Park, formerly known as Ewa Beach Park, is a popular five-acre park on Oahu's southwest shoreline. Puuloa Beach Park includes open-air, unroofed restroom facilities and complaints of individuals scaling the facilities' walls to peer inside the restrooms. This measure urges the City and County of Honolulu to install a roof covering over those restrooms so that they are safer and more secure for residents of, and visitors to, Puuloa Beach Park.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Public Safety, Intergovernmental, and Military Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of S.R. No. 107 and recommends its adoption.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Public Safety, Intergovernmental, and Military Affairs,
