REQUESTING THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION AND DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION OF THE COUNTY OF MAUI TO COLLABORATE WITH THE KIHEI COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION IN THE PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE KIHEI MAUKA ROAD PROJECT.

This Senate Resolution (SR 21) requests Hawaii's Department of Transportation and Maui County's Department of Transportation to collaborate with the Kihei Community Association (KCA) on planning and implementing the Kihei Mauka Road project. It specifically requires regular consultations with the KCA to incorporate community feedback, address environmental concerns, and align the project with the Kihei-Makena Community Plan. As a procedural resolution, it does not fund or construct the road but mandates collaborative process steps for the project. The resolution directly affects the KCA as a community partner and the transportation departments as the implementing agencies.
