Urging The City And County Of Honolulu To Intervene In The Situation At Sunset Memorial Park And Use Any Necessary Legal Means To Take Control Of Sunset Memorial Park.
Impact
The resolution aims to prompt the city and county to assume control of the cemetery, which currently lacks ownership and is poorly maintained. Given that volunteers are currently responsible for upkeep without adequate funding, the resolution stresses the need for the city to take necessary legal steps to ensure proper management and restoration of the park. This could involve accessing funds that are currently tied up in trusts, which the cemetery cannot access due to ongoing legal complications.
Summary
H.C.R. NO. 65 is a House Concurrent Resolution urging the City and County of Honolulu to take legal action regarding Sunset Memorial Park, a cemetery located in Pearl City, Oahu. The park has been in a state of neglect following the dissolution of its owning company in 2006 and the subsequent death of its owner in 2011. This situation has led to significant safety issues, including sunken graves and overgrown vegetation, which hinder families from locating their loved ones. Additionally, the park has faced vandalism incidents, raising further concerns about the site's security and maintenance.
Contention
While the resolution is generally framed as a necessary intervention to address public safety and community concerns, there may be broader implications regarding local governance and financial management. One point of contention might arise from how the city addresses the financial issues impacting the park's maintenance, such as the absence of property tax payments from 2019 to 2022, highlighting the complexities of managing community resources in the wake of mismanagement by previous owners.
