I’m shocked. I just can’t believe the City Council, especially Councilmember Calvin Say, would hear or introduce a bill to penalize citizens for removing shopping carts from their properties and leaving said carts on streets and sidewalks (“Honolulu City Council pushes fines, jail for shopping cart violations,” Star-Advertiser, Sept. 10). And the Council advanced the bill?
Bill 49 would fine such persons $500 or sentence them to jail for up to 30 days. Seriously? This is what we get with a 64% increase in City Council pay? They are making more than $100,000 a year now, and this is what they come up with? Pathetic.
