HOUSE RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, in October 2019, a fifty year-old man was robbed at knifepoint in the Chinatown area; and
WHEREAS, the cameras monitoring the Chinatown area currently do not work; and

BE IT RESOLVED by the House of Representatives of the Thirtieth Legislature of the State of Hawaii, Regular Session of 2020, that the Mayor of the City and County of Honolulu and Honolulu City Council are strongly urged to install and maintain a new camera system in the Downtown and Chinatown areas; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that certified copies of this Resolution be transmitted to the Mayor of the City and County of Honolulu, Chair of the Honolulu City Council, Chief of the Honolulu Police Department, and Chair of the Downtown-Chinatown Neighborhood Board.
