Kilauea Park Secured for Community | Honolulu News

Kilauea District Park in Honolulu is officially staying under city control thanks to a new agreement between the State Department of Education and the City and County of Honolulu, ensuring the gym, recreation buildings, and community spaces remain open and well-managed. This comes after a new law shifted some school lands to the Department of Education, sparking fears in the Kaimukī neighborhood about losing access to the park — but the deal clearly separates the park from the school, preserving both. The Department of Parks and Recreation continues to handle permits, scheduling, maintenance, and events, keeping beloved programs running smoothly. Plus, the city has already allocated $400,000 to repair the gym roof — proving this isn’t just about preservation, but improvement. It’s a win for the community, securing the park’s future and easing everyone’s worries. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
