Aloha,
We have the opportunity right now to create positive and lasting change at the State Historic Preservation Division with HCR 50.
We only have 3 days left to make this happen. We humbly ask you please send an email or make a call in support of HCR 50.
Resolution HCR 50 requests a managerial audit of the State Historic Preservation Division. The audit calls for an objective evaluation of SHPD so
measures can be enacted to correct the deficiencies and to assess if other legislation needs to be enacted to strengthen the protection and preservation
of our sacred sites and our na iwi kupuna. The passage of this resolution, and the audit it enacts, will help pave the way for the community to begin to trust
and believe a healthy and properly functioning SHPD is possible.
A Community Forum was held last Wednesday, April 14th and issues raised by community members at the forum continually highlighted and revealed the lack of
proper management and decision making at the administrative level of SHPD. The lack of funding and staff cannot be used as excuses by the SHPD Administrator SHPO Deputy.
We need a preservation division in Hawai'i that acts and conducts itself in accordance with the law and what is right for preservation and protection.
Please write an email to support HCR 50 as soon as you can.
