A heated local debate has brewed for several years in our City and County of Honolulu most loudly in our Windward neighborhoods.
The issue; Bed & Breakfasts. Small lodging establishments that offer overnight accommodation and breakfast, but usually do not offer other meals. Typically, bed and breakfasts are private homes with fewer than 10 bedrooms available for commercial use.
Concerns of property value, public safety, property rights and business revenue have fueled both sides of the fence.
Larry Bartley, a Windward neighborhood board member, will represent opposition to B & Bs. Jim Henshaw, former state senatorial candidate, will represent the side in favor of B & Bs.
Professor Ken Schoolland will moderate with question and answers to follow. $5 per guest for drinks and pupus.
