Additional funding to be included in the HPD budget. The justification for the Special Parks and Beach Detail will be made a part of the motion:
Justification: The mission of the Special Parks and Beach Detail would be to improve the quality and safety of the active parks and beaches in the City and County of Honolulu for the enjoyment of the community and to serve as a resource to park patrons. The officers will enforce the laws of the State of Hawaii and the ordinances of the City and County of Honolulu. The Detail would operate under the community policing philosophy, responding to the needs of its patrons and employees of the parks and beach lands. There are not enough beat officers in most districts to service the active parks and beaches. The Detail would work closely with State Division of Conservation and Resource Enforcement (DOCARE).
