Your Committee on Public Works and Parks and Recreation, to which was referred Bill No. 242,
reports as follows:
Bill No. 242, transmitted by Public Works Director Warren H. W. Lee, via Communication
No. 688, dated April 13, 2012, amends Chapter 24, Article 10, Division 1, Section 24-263,
Schedule 11 (55 mile per hour limit), subsection (g), by adding a new item: "( ) Pahoa-Kapoho
Road, west bound lane, from Kalapana-Kapoho Beach Road to Pohoiki Road and eastbound
lane, from Pohoiki Road and extending seven hundred fifty feet west of Kalapana-Kapoho Beach
Road."
This amendment creates a new 55 mph item for Pahoa-Kapoho Road and addresses a safety
concern at the eastern terminus of Pahoa-Kapoho Road. A new 35 mph item is being proposed
for the last 750 feet adjacent to the eastern terminus of Pahoa-Kapoho Road.
Your Committee on Public Works and Parks and Recreation is in accord with the purpose and
intent of Bill No. 242, and recommends its passage on first reading.
