Building Street Usage Permits for Construction - Any property owner who is planning on construction that will require a dumpster be placed on a public street must comply with the related rules and regulations. The informational guide for the street usage permit may be found on the City and County of Honolulu website under "Street Usage Permits for Construction" at http://www.honolulu.gov/dts/usage/street.htm.

1) Barking Dogs

Dog owners are in violation of the City's animal nuisance law if their dog barks intermittently for 30 minutes or constantly for 10 minutes "to the disturbance of others."

In these situations, first try to let your neighbor know your concerns since the neighbor may not be aware of that their dog is disturbing anyone. If this fails, you may call the Humane Society at 946-2187. Give the address and, if possible, the name of the resident. The Humane Society will respond to the call by first sending a letter to the dog owner with educational material and will indicate that a complaint has been received. Up to this point the caller may remain anonymous.

For a second complaint within a month, the Humane Society will send an investigator to meet with the owner. If there is a third complaint, the complainant must sign an affidavit detailing the problem. If the dog owner challenges the citation, the matter goes to court. This is why there must be an official complainant.

Note: If the barking might indicate a burglary, fight, or other suspicious circumstances, call 911.

2) Pet Waste Pick-Up

There is a City & County Ordinance against littering which includes a provision that applies to animals. If your pet deposits feces on private or public property, you are required to clean it up. The Honolulu Police Department enforces this litter law. To file a complaint, call HPD directly (call 911). To read more about the Litter Law, go to: http://www.hawaiianhumane.org/animallaws/index.html

Please do not drop your dog's waste (wrapped or unwrapped) in a neighbors trash container, and especially if the trash container is out for pick-up and has already been emptied, or just happens to be handy between trash pick-ups. In our warm climate it very quickly becomes an awful odor in the homeowner's trash can.
