Anyone seeking a permit from the Department of Parks and Recreation may have to wait longer than usual. The department says there may be more customer delays with the permit section at the Lihue Civic Center in Suite 150 Thursday through Monday due to renovation work being done. Delayed services can include assistance both in-person and over the phone, and processing event permits, special events, and Group A pavilions. Visit Kauai.gov to use the online permit portal.
