Urging The Honolulu Police Department To Increase Police Presence In Haleiwa To Match Police Presence In Waikiki.
Impact
By urging a higher concentration of law enforcement in Haleiwa, HR20 seeks to enhance public safety and deter crime, paralleling the protection provided in Waikiki, which is known for its high tourist traffic and significant police presence. The resolution recognizes the similarities between the challenges faced by both Haleiwa and Waikiki, framing the police presence not only as a method of ensuring safety but also as a necessary condition for maintaining Haleiwa’s viability as a tourist destination.
Summary
House Resolution 20 (HR20) urges the Honolulu Police Department to increase police presence in Haleiwa to match that in Waikiki, recognizing the growing concerns around safety in the area. Haleiwa, a popular destination for both locals and tourists known for its surfing and unique food options, has experienced a noticeable increase in crime, mirroring issues faced by Waikiki. Local reports indicate rising criminal activities, including assaults and thefts, which have led residents to feel unsafe, especially after sunset.
Contention
The proposal may encounter contention, particularly from local community members who are concerned about the adequacy of police resources and the potential implications of increased policing in their community. There are underlying concerns about the effectiveness of merely increasing police presence as a solution to deeper social issues influencing crime rates. Questions around the allocation of police resources and the impact on community policing models may also arise as stakeholders discuss how best to address safety in Haleiwa without alienating residents.
