HONOLULU — The author of a bill that would ban sitting and lying on sidewalks in Oahu business districts outside Waikiki wants to pull the measure back for further work.
Councilman Ron Menor said the latest draft of the bill includes too many zones that either are not truly business districts or otherwise might not be affected by sidewalk dwellers, The Honolulu Star-Advertiser (http://bit.ly/1pRvmmW) reported.
These factors could result in the bill not being able to pass constitutional muster, Menor said.
Council Chairman Ernie Martin has indicated he will support his request for a deferral, Menor said. He expects the bill to return to the Honolulu City Council at its November meeting.
