RE: H.C.R. No. 50

H.D. 1

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Second State Legislature

Regular Session of 2004

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Tourism and Culture, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 50 entitled:

"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION DESIGNATING THE HAWAII CAPITAL CULTURAL DISTRICT AND ENCOURAGING THE MAXIMUM INVOLVEMENT AND SUPPORT OF ALL PUBLIC AND PRIVATE ORGANIZATIONS TO COLLABORATE WITH THE STATE FOUNDATION ON CULTURE AND THE ARTS TO SUSTAIN AND PROMOTE CULTURE AND THE ARTS IN HAWAII,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this concurrent resolution is to:

1) Designate the area in Honolulu between Kalihi and Piikoi

Streets, and Beretania Street, and the Pacific Ocean as

the Hawaii Capitol Cultural District; and to

2) Encourage maximum involvement and support of all public

and private organizations to collaborate with the State

Foundation of Culture and the Arts (SFCA) to preserve

and develop culture and the arts throughout the State.

The SFCA, the Hawaii Consortium for the Arts, and the Hawaii Theatre Center supported this measure. A concerned individual supported the intent of this measure.

Your Committee has amended this measure by making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity and consistency by changing the spelling of the word "Capital" to "Capitol" wherever it appears throughout this measure.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Tourism and Culture that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.C.R. No. 50, as amended herein, and recommends its adoption in the form attached hereto as H.C.R. No. 50, H.D. 1.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Tourism and Culture,
