Prohibiting the Feeding of Feral Animals on County Property
Bill 51 amends the Hawaiʻi County Code to prohibit the feeding of feral animals—including cats, pigs, goats, and chickens—on all County-owned or managed properties. The measure aims to reduce public health risks, protect native wildlife from predation and disease, prevent property damage, and support statewide conservation and invasive species control efforts. The bill includes modest civil penalties for violations and empowers the County to enforce the restriction as part of its responsibility to maintain safe, sanitary, and ecologically responsible public spaces.
Funding for Aloha Animal Alliance's TNR Program
This resolution proposes awarding $50,000 in grant funds to Aloha Animal Alliance Hawaiʻi for their cat spay and neuter initiatives, specifically their Trap-Neuter-Return-Manage (TNRM) program.
