Impact
If HR92 is successfully enacted, it could lead to the development of new facilities for recreational boating, potentially revitalizing the East Loch shoreline and enhancing public enjoyment of this significant locale. The resolution emphasizes the potential of the East Loch as a recreational asset, aligning with the City and County of Honolulu's Urban Plan that encourages increased public access to the waterfront. This could lead to improved community health and wellness through enhanced outdoor activity opportunities.
Summary
House Resolution 92 (HR92) aims to enhance public recreational access to the East Loch of Pearl Harbor by requesting Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam and the Division of Boating and Ocean Recreation of the Department of Land and Natural Resources to collaborate on establishing a recreational area. This initiative is driven by the belief that a designated area for boating and watercraft activities will significantly benefit the well-being of Hawaii residents and enrich the local community. The resolution cites the historical and cultural importance of Pearl Harbor, reinforcing its status as a vital recreational space within the area.
Contention
While the resolution is primarily focused on the collaboration for establishing a recreational area, it could invite discussions about environmental concerns associated with development projects in such sensitive areas. Potential contention may arise regarding the ecological impact of increased boating activities, especially if facilities are implemented without due consideration of the local ecosystem. The feasibility studies requested in the resolution would be critical in addressing these concerns and ensuring that the establishment of recreational areas balances public use with environmental protection.
