REQUESTING THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO DESIGNATE KALAELOA AIRPORT AS THE ABIGAIL K.K. KAWANANAKOA AIRPORT.

This concurrent resolution requests the Hawaii Department of Transportation to rename Kalaeloa Airport as the "Abigail K.K. Kawananakoa Airport." It directly affects the airport's official designation and honors Abigail K.K. Kawananakoa, a descendant of Hawaiian royalty and advocate for Native Hawaiian cultural preservation. The resolution cites her family's historical ties to the Honouliuli ahupuaʻa (land division) where the airport is located, including connections to James Campbell and Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole. The measure is purely a naming request and does not alter airport operations, funding, or regulations.
