Adam White, in support of SB1034

I support saving the free public parking at the Ala Wai Boat Harbor. The public deserves access to our ocean waters.

It is so difficult for most of us to make ends meet on the island already. After bills, taxes, rent, work is taken care of, the place that I (and many others) go to relax and connect with Ke Akua is the ocean. Making our free public parking spots fee-based is just another way to keep the middle/lower income residents from having access to our best surf spots. Surfing has saved my life in so many ways. The ocean has taught me Malama Honua. For many, the ocean makes us better versions of ourselves and hence, better community members.

Please allow us to continue parking at this sacred place for free. Aloha Ke Akua, Adam
