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.

  • Appendix 3: a Note on Sources
    Appendix 3: A Note on Sources There is a wealth of material from which to develop a more comprehensive account of the role played by warfare and coercion during the wars of unification. The unification of the Hawaiian archipelago is particularly well documented because of its relatively late date, the large number of European visitors to the chain who left written accounts about the period of unification, and the recording of Hawaiian sources in the 19th century. Seven groups of sources are available for the study of Hawaiian society up until the death of the first king, Kamehameha I, in 1819: the observations of European visitors to the islands from 1778 until 1819, missionary accounts from 1820 onwards, oral traditions and oral testimony recorded by Hawaiian scholars from the 1830s onwards, ethnographic studies by Europeans from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, 19th-century land records, archaeological remains of Hawaiian culture, and modern scientific studies of the physical environment. The earliest written accounts of Hawaiian society are the journals and logs of various members of Captain James Cook’s third voyage of discovery into the Pacific. Cook made three separate visits to the Hawaiian Islands between January 1778 and February 1779. As a number of Cook’s officers kept journals, it is possible to crosscheck their accounts for inconsistencies.1 The expedition only spent three and a half months in the island chain, mostly on board ship. Only Waimea Bay on Kaua‘i, and Kealakekua Bay on Hawai‘i were visited for any length of time, or described in any detail.

  • The Hawaiian Military Transformation from 1770 to 1796
    4 The Hawaiian Military Transformation from 1770 to 1796 In How Chiefs Became Kings, Patrick Kirch argues that the Hawaiian polities witnessed by James Cook were archaic states characterised by: the development of class stratification, land alienation from commoners and a territorial system of administrative control, a monopoly of force and endemic conquest warfare, and, most important, divine kingship legitimated by state cults with a formal priesthood.1 The previous chapter questioned the degree to which chiefly authority relied on the consent of the majority based on the belief in the sacred status of chiefs as opposed to secular coercion to enforce compliance. This chapter questions the nature of the monopoly of coercion that Kirch and most commentators ascribed to chiefs. It is argued that military competition forced changes in the composition and tactics of chiefly armies that threatened to undermine the basis of chiefly authority. Mass formations operating in drilled unison came to increasingly figure alongside individual warriors and chiefs’ martial prowess as decisive factors in battle. Gaining military advantage against chiefly rivals came at the price of increasing reliance on lesser ranked members of ones’ own communities. This altered military relationship in turn influenced political and social relations in ways that favoured rule based more on the consent and cooperation of the ruled than the threat of coercion against them for noncompliance. As armies became larger and stayed in the field 1 Kirch (2010), p. 27. 109 TRANSFORMING Hawai‘I longer, the logistics of adequate and predictable agricultural production and supply became increasingly important and the outcome of battles came to be less decisive.

  • Charles W. Kenn, Trans. Moolelo of Ancient Hawaii, Reverend John F
    Reviews 85 Charles W. Kenn, Trans. Moolelo of Ancient Hawaii, Reverend John F. Pogue, Honolulu, Topgallant Press, 1978. Pp. xii, 245, appendix. $5.95. A major obstacle to understanding anything having to do with Ha- waiian history and culture is that most of the major histories are written by non-speakers of the Hawaiian language. Thus, all of the major English- language histories or commentaries on Hawaii are based on the writings of basically four people: Samuel Kamakau, David Malo, John Papa Ii, and Abraham Fornander, Hawaiians who spoke English. But, much of Ka- makau was unknown until parts of his writing were translated by Dr. Mary Kawena Pukui, in 1950. Much of Malo’s work still remains to be translated, as is the case with some of the Ii and Fornander materials. The real need in Hawaiian studies presently is for Hawaiian translators who understand the metaphors of the Hawaiian language of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and who also have the historian’s objectivity and re- search skills. Such a rare gem is Charles W. Kenn, who, in his seventies now, is just beginning to receive the credit and the recognition due him as a Hawaiian linguist and scholar. He has written prolifically on a number of Hawaiian subjects such as history, genealogy, sports, linguistics, music and even horticulture. In the Hawaiian community itself, Kenn is greatly admired and respected for his universal and academic perspective. He has labored long and largely unnoticed most of his life, although he is quoted often by scholars at the Bishop Museum, the Kamehameha Schools and the University of Hawaii.

    The Consequences of Eating With Men Hawaiian Women and the Challenges of Cultural Transformation By Paulina Natalia Dudzinska A thesis submitted for the Cand. Philol. Degree in History of Religions Department of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages University of Oslo Spring 2007 2 Summary Before 1819 Hawaiian society was ruled by a system of ritual laws called kapu. One of these, the aikapu (sacred eating), required men and women to eat separately. Because eating was ritual, some food items, symbolically associated with male deities, were forbidden to women. It was believed that women had a “haumia” (traditionally translated as “defiling”) effect on the male manifestations of the divine and were, as a consequence, barred from direct worship of male gods and work tasks such as agriculture and cooking. In Western history writing, Hawaiian women always presented a certain paradox. Although submitted to aikapu ideology, that was considered devaluing by Western historians, women were nevertheless always present in public affairs. They engaged in the same activities as men, often together with men. They practised sports, went to war and assumed public leadership roles competing with men for power. Ruling queens and other powerful chiefesses appear frequently in Hawaiian history, chants and myths. The Hawaiians did not seem to expect different behaviour of men and women, except perhaps in ritual contexts. Rank transcended any potential asymmetry of genders and sometimes the highest-ranking women were considered above the kapu system, even the aikapu. In 1819, after 40 years of contact with the foreigners, powerful Hawaiian queens decided to abolish the kapu system, including the aikapu.

  • Pahua Heiau, Maunalua, O‘Ahu
    Ke Kula Wela La o Pahua The Cultural and Historical Significance of Pahua Heiau, Maunalua, O‘ahu Research Division Land, Culture, and History May 2014 Holly Coleman, M.A. Research Analyst Front and Back Cover: Pahua Heiau, Maunalua, O‘ahu. Source: OHA, 2014. 2 Executive Summary OHA received its first landholding, Pahua Heiau, in 1988. Pahua sits on a small 1.15 acre parcel of land located in southeastern O‘ahu in a residential neighbor- hood of Maunalua (which is now known as Hawai‘i Kai). This report seeks to explore the cultural and historical narratives of Pahua Heiau. It is hoped that this effort will renew a modern, collective understanding of Pahua as a wahi pana (storied place) and will guide stewardship practices within OHA. Pahua remains a vital cultural and historical resource for Native Hawaiians and the broader community. The goal of this report is to make important ‘ike ‘äina (intimate and nuanced knowledge about a place) about Pahua Heiau more readily available to the public, and will hopefully inform future decisions about the site. OHA seeks to steward Pahua in a way that fulfills OHA’s kuleana to Native Ha- waiians, honors Pahua as a wahi pana (storied, noted, legendary place), and ac- tively involves the community in care of the site. In particular, Pahua represents an important opportunity to develop and implement strategies that are rooted in traditional Native Hawaiian cultural practices and informed by Native Hawaiian epistemologies in ways that cultivate meaningful, impactful, and long–term stew- ardship.
