SCR 30 Hawaii Senate · 2025 Regular Session

REQUESTING THE COMMANDER OF JOINT BASE PEARL HARBOR-HICKAM TO ALLOW THE DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION OF THE CITY AND COUNTY OF HONOLULU TO USE THE RESTRICTED VACANT LAND ON THE PEARL CITY PENINSULA FOR YOUTH BALL PROGRAMS.

This concurrent resolution (SCR 30) requests the Commander of Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam to temporarily allow Honolulu's Department of Parks and Recreation to use 12 acres of restricted vacant land on the Pearl City Peninsula for youth sports programs. It specifically proposes using non-contaminated portions of the land to create at least three ball fields for soccer, baseball, and flag football, while contaminated areas would be used for parking. The request aims to address a shortage of city ball fields for youth teams, as current demand exceeds available facilities. (Note: This is a non-binding request, not a law.)
