RE: S.C.R. No. 70
S.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 Water & Land, to which was referred S.C.R.
No. 70, S.D. 1, entitled:
“SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE HAWAII EMERGENCY
MANAGEMENT AGENCY TO INSTALL A NEW EMERGENCY SIREN NEAR THE
INTERSECTION OF AUMAKUA STREET AND AUHUHU STREET IN UPPER
PACIFIC PALISADES,”
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to request the Hawaii
Emergency Management Agency to make the installation of a new
emergency siren near the intersection of Aumakua Street and Auhuhu
Street in upper Pacific Palisades, Oahu, a top priority.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure
from the Pearl City Neighborhood Board No. 21.
Your Committee finds that it is often difficult, if not
impossible, for certain community members in the Pacific Palisades
area to hear the emergency siren. Your Committee further finds
that on numerous occasions, the Pearl City Neighborhood Board has
sought the support of Hawaii’s emergency management agencies to
resolve this issue but has yet to receive proper assistance. Your
Committee believes that placing a new siren in upper Pacific
Palisades would resolve this issue and promote public safety.
