REQUESTING THE HAWAII EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY TO INSTALL A NEW EMERGENCY SIREN NEAR THE INTERSECTION OF AUMAKUA STREET AND AUHUHU STREET IN UPPER PACIFIC PALISADES.

 

 


     WHEREAS, emergency preparedness is of paramount importance to the State; and

     BE IT RESOLVED by the Senate of the Thirty-second Legislature of the State of Hawaii, Regular Session of 2024, that the Hawaii Emergency Management Agency is requested to make the installation of a new emergency siren near the intersection of Aumakua Street and Auhuhu Street in upper Pacific Palisades a top priority; and
