Building Requirements - Anyone who is renovating should refer to the Building Requirements pertaining to View Channels and View Planes, which are on the Documents Page of this web site. Remember that each property is unique.

Bulk Trash Pick up - You need to have your bulk trash ready for pick up on the fourth Monday of the month. BULKY Items will be on the fourth Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday. Please do not put your bulky items out weeks in advance. You may be cited by the city.

Car Decals - If you are a dues paying member, you may request blue decals for your cars. Contact Sandra Kingery at 373-4183 or dd_aloha@yahoo.com. These decals help our security guards identify and protect our vehicles and are only for WIRCA members.

Cars Parked in Cul De Sacs. We recently had several incidents where bi-weekly trash was not collected because cars were parked in the cul-de-sac. If you live in a cul-de-sac, please be aware that the trash trucks have a right to not collect your trash even if there is even one car parked on the street. We also learned that police officers are authorized to cite vehicles parked in our cul-de-sacs, even though "No Parking signs" are not posted. Officers are also authorized to cite vehicles parking partially on city-owned cul-de-sacs and partially on a driveway apron. Emergency vehicles much be able to maneuver in the event of an incident.

Green Waste is picked up on the second and fourth Wednesday of the month.

Noise - If you are repeatedly annoyed by barking dogs, building maintenance, construction, loud music, etc, you may contact the State Department of Health, 591 Ala Moana Bld., Honolulu, HI 96813 and request a copy of "Who are you going to call when the noise gets too LOUD." Phone 586-4700.

Traffic Calming - Remember to slow down when driving up and down Laukahi. We have had several serious accidents on Laukahi Street and will be doing some speed monitoring programs soon to raise awareness of the danger of speeding on our hill.

Pothole Hotline - Please call the Pothole Hotline 24 hours a day to report any potholes. The more calls they receive from us, the faster our potholes will get filled. The number to call is 768-7777.
