What’s At Stake?
In the 2020 election, for the first time in Maui County history, our Maui County Council gained a progressive majority of five members.
This resulted in extensive legislation to:
manage tourism and reduce vacation rentals
promote long-term, affordable housing opportunities for residents
create a department of agriculture to increase food security
address climate change and sea level rise impacts
prevent generational families from being priced out
protect the environment and culturally sensitive areas
care for our unsheltered ‘ohana
fund farmers’ microgrants and control deer populations
promote local businesses and fund other industries, including healthcare
transition Council meetings online, creating more transparency and accessibility
