REQUESTING THE MAYOR OF THE CITY AND COUNTY OF HONOLULU, HONOLULU CITY COUNCIL, AND DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION OF THE CITY AND COUNTY OF HONOLULU TO CREATE A DEDICATED ANIMAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING COMPLEX WITHIN KALAELOA PARKLANDS.

This House Resolution requests Honolulu officials to create a dedicated animal education and training complex within Kalaeloa parklands. It aims to address the lack of pet-friendly recreational spaces on Oahu, particularly for dog shows, 4H animal groups, and off-leash activities, by proposing facilities like secure indoor exhibition rooms, bathrooms, food prep areas, and storage for equipment (e.g., agility courses and pet show cages). The resolution is non-binding and specifically targets the City and County of Honolulu's Mayor, City Council, and Parks Department. It follows the city's recent acquisition of 400 acres of parkland from the Navy.
