Dan,
Actually, service animals are not mentioned in the Act itself. Title II
(which applies to public entities) and Title III (which applies to private
entities that provide public accommodations) refers to the entities
requirements to "modify policies, practices, and procedures" to allow an
individual with a disability the right to use "auxiliary aids and services".
A service animal is like a wheelchair, walker, or some other auxiliary aid
or service.
The United States legal system is built on case law. the decisions of
the Courts defines the law, not necessarily the written word. In the case of
Hawaii, the Court has determined that they are within their rights to impose
the rules they have established. Changing this case law will be up to a
higher court with jurisdiction.
fraternally yours,
Marion Gwizdala
