What is needed for the Ala Wai Small Boat Harbor to achieve its full potential?

The following list are ideas from interested supporters at the July 1, 2019 meeting to identify what Ala Wai Small Boat Harbor (AWSBH) needs to achieve its full potential as the "focal point of" or "gateway to" Waikiki. There were many good ideas and some duplicated (the number is noted in parentheses next to the item).

If you think anything important is missing or have further comments please email senmoriwaki@capitol.hawaii.gov. Also review the list and identify and email the three top priorities – those critical actions that must be taken to achieve AWSBH's potential as a great public small boat harbor. Deadline: Send your additional input and selection no later than August 9.
