J. Hartman complained about motorcycles found parked on Alii Drive in no-parking <br />zones particularly on weekends in front of Durty Jakes. He reported this violation to <br />the Police Department many times and nothing happens. A police officer drove past <br />without stopping to issue tickets because the particular officer claimed Ðit was not his <br />beat.Ñ In addition, there are cars parked in a no-parking zone in front of QuinnÓs <br />Restaurant. There are no sidewalks and for a person using a wheelchair, he has to <br />go around the cars and into the traffic lanes on Alii Drive to g <br />A. Levin offered to send a memo to the Police Department concerning parking on <br />weekends in front of Durty Jakes and QuinnÓs. <br />J. Hartman raised a concern about people parking in accessible stalls without <br />appropriate parking placards at Pahoehoe Beach Park, Magic Sands Beach Park, <br />Kahaluu Beach Park, and HonlÓs. <br />J. Hartman stated that the volunteer parking enforcement volunteers have limited <br />hours and strict guidelines. If there is any kind of community event occurring at <br />Keauhou Shopping Center or Lanihau Shopping Center, there are no accessible <br />stalls available for disabled people. The violators are never ticketed because the <br />volunteers donÓt work on weekends or the hours that they work are not necessarily <br />the prime hours for ticketing. <br />J. Hartman expressed his concern that people who violate accessible parking are <br />not being charged the minimum of $250 as set by the State. The judges have even <br />broken down the fee to $20 or turned people away because the violator is unable to <br />afford it. <br />B. UPDATE FROM DCAB Î C. FLEMING/N.

Levin reported that DCAB will be presenting training sessions to the Police <br />Department on issues relating to people who are deaf or hard of hearing. He will <br />ask the trainers to raise the issue of having an ADA Coordinator for the Police <br />Department. <br />A. Levin stated he is exploring the idea of issuing identification cards for people who <br />are deaf or hard of hearing. There is one district (Waikiki) on Oahu that does this. <br />Apparently there is one officer who took the initiative to put this together. <br />Identification cards are also being issued on the island of Kauai. A. Levin said he <br />forwarded samples of the cards to our Police Department for its review and <br />comments. <br />A. Levin reported that the initial response he received from DCAB regarding portable <br />toilets was that the county standards for requiring portable toilets was appropriate. <br />S.
