COASTAL PATH UPDATE 1-23-2008 - Thursday, January 24, 2008

As the opening of the new section of the Coast Pedestrian/Bike Path from the Lihi in Kapa`a to Kealia Beach draws closer, we would like to pass on the following information.  With the safety of the path users in mind, we would like to please ask everyone to obey all county laws regarding the use of the pedestrian/bike path.  The pedestrian/bike path and the area surrounding it are considered a county park.  All laws governing our parks apply to all sections of the path whether the section is officially open or closed.  Signs have recently been installed at the trailheads and access points to the pathway and more will follow.

The following are some of the laws governing the use of the path:

No Animals Are Allowed

No Motorized Vehicles Are Allowed

No Camping Along the Pathway

No Open Fires Allowed

If  you are issued a citation for any violations of our Parks Ordinances, you will be required to appear in court and can be penalized up to five hundred ($500.00) for each violation.

We hope you have a safe and enjoyable experience while using the path.
