Aloha! On Prince Kuhio Day, residents came out to the Nanakuli Beach Park Blessing & Rededication to honor Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalaniana‘ole Pi‘ikoi and celebrate restoring the park name to “Kalaniana‘ole Beach Park” .

The event began with formal welcomes from Mayor Caldwell and I, followed by a beautiful hula performance, traditional Hawaiian blessing and an unveiling of the new Kalanianaʻole Beach Park sign. We were also honored to have an original portrait of Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalaniana‘ole Pi‘ikoi present at our ceremony— graciously provided by Kawaiaha’o Church in commemoration of the 145th anniversary of the Prince’s birthday.

Residents in attendance respectfully stood in awe as the kane blew the pu—heralding the arrival of sacred kahili (Courtesy of Uncle Shad Kane) which circled around the park grounds, signifying the spiritual presence of royalty. In this moment, many recognized that this event wasn’t just about restoring a park’s name— it was about restoring the history and cultural significance of our Kalaniana‘ole Beach Park—the park originally named in honor of Prince Kalaniana‘ole Pi‘ikoi’s lifetime of compassionate and committed civic service to the homesteaders of Nanakuli and the people of Hawai‘i.

I would like to wish a warm mahalo to Patty Kahanamoku Teruya, for organizing this event, Kali Watson for his generous donation of the sign, PVT Landfill for their contributions to the event, and Ronnie Hudson and Annie Au Hoon for designing the new Kalanianaole Beach Park sign. I would also like to thank Mayor Caldwell, Department of Parks and Recreation Director Michele Nekota, Executive

Director of Culture and the Arts Misty Kela‘i, The Royal Hawaiian Band, members of the Nānākuli/Mā‘ili Neighborhood Board, members of the Wai‘anae Coast Neighborhood Board, and members of the Leeward Association of Hawaiian Civic Clubs for their participation in this memorable ceremony. Last but not least, I would like to commemorate the Nanakuli-Maili Neighborhood board for your inspiration behind Resolution 15-289—Urging the City to rename Nanakuli Beach Park to Kalanianaole Beach Park. Thanks to your tireless support, this measure has become a reality for all of us now. E Paka Kakou If you have any questions about how you can get involved with our community’s parks or want to learn more about my initiatives to restore the history of our parks, feel free to contact me at kmpine@honolulu.gov.

Residents recently came out to attend Pili O Waianae Po'e— A

Waianae Community Connections Meeting on March 30, 2016 at the Kamehameha Schools Community Learning Center at Mā‘ili.

With nearly 70 attendees representing local businesses, civic groups, and community organizations throughout our Waianae neighborhoods, the event was

a success. Following a beautiful pule presented by Waianae Resident Paula

Burgess and introduction from former City Council Chair John DeSoto,

residents received an update on City

and State projects, transportation, parks, affordable housing, and cultural

sustainability for the Waianae Coast.

Our evening of presentations began with Senator Maile

Shimabukuro who gave a legislative update on transportation and capital improvement projects in Oahu— including contraflow lanes,

the Waianae Coast Emergency Access Road and the widening of

Farrington Hwy. from Kalaeloa to Hakimo Road. My presentation, titled Pili O Waianae Po'e provided an update on my ongoing

initiatives to connect Leeward Coast residents with City’s resources, so we can continue to grow as a community.

The evening ended with a cultural sustainability update from

Konohiki Hanale Kili Hopfe who spoke into the hearts of the Waianae residents regarding preserving the history and cultural

significance of our communities.

Bill 9 CD1—Relating to Parks It is important to preserve the culture and legacy of the parks

and beaches that we cherish every day, which is why

Councilmember Pine introduced Bill 9 CD 1 in an effort to establish a program within the Department of Parks & Recreation

for the designation of sites of cultural value located in City public parks.

In an unanimous vote, Bill 9 CD 1 passed for adoption at

the March 16 City Council Meeting.

On March 21, Mayor Kirk Caldwell accompanied by Councilmember Kymberly Marcos Pine signed Bill 9 into law at Pokai Bay Beach Park— drawing a crowd of Leeward residents who have passionately supported this initiative for decades. Under the new law, any interested person will be able to recommend the designation of a cultural site to the parks

department with a description of the cultural impact of the site on the city or surrounding communities. If approved, the

department will install a cultural marker informing the public of

the designated cultural site. The person requesting the marker will be responsible for purchasing and maintaining the marker.
