Honolulu Mayor Mufi Hannemann signed five bills into law yesterday. Do you know what they were? How many bills signed by the Mayor into law this year can you name?
The new laws were numbered Bill 63, Bill 69, Bill 71, Bill 72, and Bill 73. The nearly sequential nature of those bills indicates that many others were signed earlier this year, and some bills didn’t make it to a signature.
Bill 63 sets up a curbside recycling project, including fees. Bill 69 rezoned land along Waialae Avenue. Bills 71, 72, and 73 get into real property tax appeals and assessments.
Back to the question. How many bills that have been signed into law this year can you name?
Contrary to popular belief, it does appear that the Honolulu City Council and the Mayor actually do some work, and some of that work might be to the benefit of the people. With all the press and television coverage provided to city and state government, why is it that most of us still don’t know of any specific laws passed this year?
