AI Summary

  • Urges the Mayor of Honolulu and Honolulu City Council to grant an exemption from Section 15-14.1(a)(2) of the Revised Ordinances of Honolulu for the Ho'okea community in Ewa Villages
  • Section 15-14.1(a)(2) prohibits parking in front of driveways or within four feet of either side of a driveway, creating severe parking shortages in the high-density Ho'okea neighborhood
  • Ho'okea is an affordable housing project built by the City in 1970 with six streets (Halolani, Auwaha, Paeko, Kamahoi, Olehala, and Maliko) that were designed with limited parking according to 1970s standards
  • The neighborhood's original design does not comply with the 1978 parking ordinance, and many residents own multiple vehicles but cannot park near their homes
  • Directs certified copies of the resolution to be sent to the Mayor, Honolulu City Council Chairperson, and the Director of the Department of Planning and Permitting
