The homeless problem on the island of O`ahu is one that affects not only residents but also tourists. The purpose of this qualitative case study was to reveal the perceptions of policy makers on the island of O`ahu, Hawai`i if diffusing public policy from Salt Lake City, Utah, would help ameliorate homelessness on the island. The theoretical framework was the diffusion theory and diffusions of innovation. These conceptual frameworks provided a lens to find viable solutions to reduce homelessness on O`ahu. Data was collected utilizing a triangulation process, whereas surveys were completed and collected from 18 policy makers, 3 knowledgeable sources were interviewed, and reports and articles from Salt Lake City and O`ahu were analyzed regarding homeless policies to ascertain whether diffusing policy would ameliorate homelessness on O`ahu. The data collected was then analyzed and hand coded to identify themes and patterns. Results indicated that affordable housing, a coordination of services, as well as a collaborative relationship with other organizations, would help with reducing homelessness on O`ahu. Furthermore, adopting policy from Salt Lake City would have to be adjusted for cultural issues of the population as well as a shortage of available land on O`ahu; however, the majority of the lawmakers found value in the plan implemented in Salt Lake City. The implications for positive social change are directed at informing policy makers about the necessity to diffuse policy from Salt Lake City to ameliorate homelessness on O`ahu.

VICTORIA KEENER, PH.D. BETTINA MEHNERT, FAIA, LEED AP The Honorable Ikaika Anderson, Chair and Presiding Officer and Members Honolulu City Council 530 South King Street, Room 202 Honolulu, Hawaiʻi 96813 Dear Chair Anderson and Councilmembers: SUBJECT: Bill 2 (2020) – Relating to Off-Street Parking and Loading The City and County of Honolulu (“City”) Climate Change Commission (“Commission”) strongly supports Bill 2, which promotes the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by right-sizing parking requirements and enabling additional mobility options. As the Commission, we emphasize how this bill will help reduce Honolulu’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The provisions in Bill 2 encourages low-greenhouse gas modes of transportation and reduces the reliance on single-occupancy vehicles. Bill 2 aligns with several other plans and policies, including the O‘ahu Resilience Strategy, the O‘ahu Bike Plan, Pedestrian Plan, Complete Streets, and the State’s goal of carbon neutrality by the year 2045. Bill 2 can thus be considered one of O‘ahu’s climate mitigation strategies. Parking requirements directly subsidize cars, increase traffic congestion, air pollution, raise housing costs, and prevent walkability (American Planning Association, 2020). Bill 2 reduces parking requirements for residential, commercial, and other land use types, which allows for more efficient land use and increases the usable lot area.

  • Women's Legislative Caucus and Women Honolulu City Councilmembers
    Women’s Legislative Caucus STATE CAPITOL HONOLULU, HAWAII 96813 NEWS RELEASE MEDIA CONTACT: Thelma Dreyer, 808-586-6261 Date: September 17, 2014 REVISED HPD CHIEF CANCELS MEETING WITH HAWAII WOMEN'S LEGISLATIVE CAUCUS AND WOMEN HONOLULU CITY COUNCILMEMBERS HONOLULU – The Hawaii Women's Legislative Caucus today announced that they received a call from the Honolulu Police Department's (HPD) Chief of Police’s office canceling Thursday’s meeting with the Women’s State Legislative Caucus and three women members of the Honolulu City Council. A representative of the Women’s Caucus spoke with the office of Chief of Police Louis M. Kealoha to ask that the commitment to meet with the women on Thursday be honored. “The purpose of Thursday’s meeting was for the Women’s Legislative Caucus and the three women city councilmembers to have the opportunity to speak with Chief Kealoha directly," said Senate President Donna Mercado Kim, a member of the Women’s Caucus. "We hoped to work cooperatively with the police to strengthen efforts to end domestic violence and keep victims safe. We wanted to discuss concerns and questions about HPD’s internal policies and procedures regarding domestic violence cases, especially when one of their own officers is a suspect that has been brought to us by victims’ service providers." “The Women’s Legislative Caucus and women Honolulu City Councilmembers asked for the opportunity to discuss these issues with Chief Kealoha prior to the public informational briefing so that he could be prepared to respond fully in public, and to, hopefully, open the door to improved partnerships and outcomes in domestic violence cases," said Senate President Kim.

The discussion will be moderated by Beth-Ann Kozlovich, Executive Producer Talk Shows, Hawaii Public Radio. All of us want to live in a high quality, affordable, people-friendly environment with open space, quality housing, and even preserve farmland for sustainable agriculture. Urban design can be a grass-roots activity, with communities participating with professionals in the design of their local environment. How do we explain the growing affordable housing shortage while luxury condominiums sprout for the wealthy? We'll ask the panelists to bring us up to date both on how Honolulu has been planned in the past and to what extent citizens have participated. But more important, since we are advocates: How can citizens participate in urban planning so they don't feel they are simply the victims of it? How do we guarantee walkable streets, open spaces, and an environment welcoming to children, adults and senior citizens? And finally, how might we become involved in current and future planning of our own living environment? Let's learn from our panel how this might be accomplished in Honolulu.
