Allows communities to protest the renewal of certain liquor licenses.
This bill amends Hawaii Revised Statutes to allow communities to protest the renewal of liquor licenses for establishments near schools or parks. Currently, the law only applies to the issuance of new liquor licenses, not renewals. The change aims to give residents more opportunity to voice concerns about alcohol-related disturbances in their neighborhoods. The bill does not affect any rights, penalties, or proceedings that began before its effective date.
