HR 48 Hawaii House · 2025 Regular Session

URGING THE CITY AND COUNTY OF HONOLULU TO WORK WITH STAKEHOLDERS TO CONSTRUCT A SIDEWALK FOR PEDESTRIAN SAFETY WHILE TRAVELING BETWEEN IROQUOIS POINT AND EWA BEACH.

This House Resolution (HR 48) urges the City and County of Honolulu to collaborate with stakeholders - including the Navy, Ewa Beach Country Club, and local property owners - to build a sidewalk between Iroquois Point and Ewa Beach. It addresses pedestrian safety concerns caused by the absence of sidewalks, poor lighting, and dense vegetation along this route. The resolution does not create new law or funding but formally requests the city to prioritize this project to reduce accident risks. It directly affects pedestrians traveling this corridor and requires the city to engage relevant stakeholders in planning. As a non-binding resolution, it has no legal effect but highlights community safety priorities.
