RE: H.C.R. No. 21
H.D. 1
Honorable Scott K. Saiki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2024
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred
H.C.R. No. 21 entitled:
“HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION URGING THE CITY AND COUNTY OF
HONOLULU TO WORK WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION AND
THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION SERVICES TO PLAN AND
IMPLEMENT OPTIONS FOR ALTERNATIVE INGRESS AND EGRESS IN
MILILANI MAUKA,”
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to urge the City and County of
Honolulu to work with the Department of Transportation to plan and
implement options for alternative ingress and egress in Mililani
Mauka.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure
from the Hawaii High School Republicans; Hawaii Federation of
Republican Women; and six individuals.
Your Committee finds that best practices for emergency
preparedness require that a community possess more than one
evacuation route, as a single ingress and egress route may prevent
emergency vehicles from responding in a timely fashion. Your
Committee further finds that Mililani Mauka features a single
primary ingress and egress route, which leaves its residents
vulnerable should that access road be obstructed during a natural

disaster. This measure is intended to increase public safety by
identifying alternative access routes for Mililani Mauka.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Amending its title in accordance with its amended
purpose;
(2) Deleting as unnecessary references to the Department of
Transportation Services of the City and County of
Honolulu;
(3) Requesting the City and County of Honolulu to provide a
plan for an alternative emergency access road in
Mililani Mauka to the Legislature twenty days prior to
the convening of the Regular Session of 2025, rather
than twenty days prior to the convening of the Regular
Session of 2024; and
(4) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the
purposes of clarity, consistency, and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Transportation that is attached to this report, your
Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.C.R. No. 21, as
amended herein, and recommends its adoption in the form attached
hereto as H.C.R. No. 21, H.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on
behalf of the members of the
Committee on Transportation,
