Jun Shin, in support of SB1034

This bill/measure is important because first and foremost, the public has a right to access our oceans. The Ala Wai harbor serves as an important gathering place for local families, surfers, sailors, paddlers, and swimmers. Removing free parking will frankly block access to the ocean. If free parking is converted to metered parking, working people who want to relax by themselves or with their families with the little free time they have will find it very difficult to consistently go to the beach as costs will add up over time.
