The goal of the master plan was to provide a planning framework allowing Ala Moana to become a multi-faceted beach park and even greater asset to the community. The master plan evaluated the park's existing conditions and identified areas of improvement including landscape features, infrastructure,parking and pathways,and the park's iconic beach front.The 17 proposed improvement projects focused on addressing deferred maintenance to elevate the park's existing facilities and address coastal erosion issues while respecting and celebrating the established character. As part of the master planning process,the B+K Planning Group prepared and published a final EIS analyzing the proposed improvements established in the master plan. As part of the environmental review process, the B+K Planning group investigated the project's potential effects on the built and natural environments and provided mitigation measures to help minimize impacts pursuant to Hawaii Revised Statues, Chapter 343. This analysis included analyzing the need for beach nourishment and drainage canal improvements to address impacts from natural and climate change hazards like sea level rise. The EIS also analyzed the project's compliance with relevant federal, state,and county land uses regulations and policies. To develop the alternatives in the master plan and EIS,a strong community engagement and outreach program was conducted to better understand the multi-generational impact of Ala Moana on the community.Multiple public,in-person informational meetings were held between 2015 and 2018 and a project website titled"Our Ala Moana Park"was launched to garner community feedback.Incorporating input from over 30,000 visitor interactions at the website,feedback from the in-person community meetings and consultation responses from the EIS resulted in the design alternatives presented in the master plan and EIS.Additionally,during the community engagement process the master planning team was informed of more urgent actions needed at Ala Moana. This prompted the City to enact a nine- point plan to address these issues in parallel with the long-term master plan creating a holistic approach to improving the park long- term.
