The City Council Parks Committee, by a 3-1 vote, yesterday moved a bill that calls for the city to get out of the beach cabin business.
Co-authored by committee chairman John Henry Felix and councilman Mufi Hannemann, the measure would reverse the Council's longstanding support for restoration of the eight dilapidated buildings. Also voting for the bill was committee member Rene Mansho.
Those who have pushed to have Camp Kailua renovated say the new policy would be discriminatory and may be grounds for legal action under the federal Americans with Disabilities Act.

The medical examiner's office yesterday identified the remains of a woman found inside a wooden box as Jocelyn Arenas, 33, who had been missing since March 6.
She had been stabbed in the chest, police said.
Arenas was identified by articles of clothing and jewelry she wore and through statements by Caguioa, said homicide Lt. Allen Napoleon.
On Monday, Caguioa led police to the burial site at a Lumimoe Street home where he had been doing some yardwork. He was nabbed at a travel agency while attempting to purchase a ticket to the Philippines.
Police found a knife in Caguioa's van last month after it was towed to a Sand Island Access Road lot, Napoleon said.
Tests are being done to determine if the knife was the murder weapon.
