Hawaii SB2011 mandates counties to adopt street address display standards to improve emergency response times.

Hawaii SB2011 aims to enhance emergency response efficiency by requiring counties to establish street address display standards. These standards must ensure addresses are visible and readable from the street, including at night, and at least two inches in height. Counties may set stricter standards to further aid emergency responders. Owners of residential and commercial buildings must comply with these standards by January 1, 2027. The bill emphasizes that clear street addresses can reduce delays, potentially minimizing property damage and health risks for patients.
