What we heard from you

“As a Maui resident, I would like to see Pulelehua become a reality. As General Manager of a hotel in West Maui, I know Pulelehua MUST become a reality, and I support any effort that helps our residents enjoy a better lifestyle. The “Price of Paradise” should not be our happiness. The time for Pulelehua is now.”

— Loren Shim GM, ResortQuest

Excerpt from the Inaugural Address of Maui Mayor Charmaine Tavares, January 2, 2007.

“The people of Maui have shared with me the things they feel are important —

…that we find a balance between an economy that is strong enough to provide satisfying jobs to all who want them and a community that includes sufficient housing that is both affordable and livable.

…that we build communities - not just housing - communities that include beautiful parks and recreational facilities.”
