Kihei Community Association | Maui, Hawaii

Monday morning, 12/5/11, all the assorted MPD vehicles turning mauka off the Pi’ilani Hwy were not part of any emergency, but were heading, along with numerous county officials, to the official groundbreaking of the long awaited Kihei Makena Police Station. Initially budgeted for $40. M, one plus side to the economic depression, was reduced costs [...]

Why would this group concerned with flooding in Kihei, and the related damage to the near shore waters of South Maui, conduct these two meetings in Kula? Maybe because they are looking at the source of the problem, rather than the result? Maybe they are looking at Hawaiian ahupua’a (mountains to sea) approach? Regardless, the [...]

OK, you know KCA has no community meeting in December, but right on time here comes MECO to talk to the community about their proposed 70′ tall poles for transmission lines, and multi million dollar power substations, across Kihei. The meeting is set for 7pm-9pm on Tuesday Dec 13th at Kamali’i Elementary School 180 Ke [...]

See update below the pictures—We love the Maui Bus, and the two routes which run across our community, mostly along So. Kihei Road. Unfortunately many of the stopping locations do not have pull-outs, so as the number of buses increase, so does the vehicle traffic accumulating behind each bus. Compounding this concern, some bus drivers [...]

While the Kihei ”dog people” seemingly have no interest in a regulated off leash dog park, the Parks Department is proceeding with plans to establish one at Keopuilani Park in Kahului to open in 2012. Wailea has had a small private  one for years, and Kihei has a few unauthorized ones, but that seems to be [...]

  Announcements that MECO is considerating alternatives to 70′ towers through our viewplaines; that land was aquired for new high school; and youth intern program at  Haleakala Park kicked off the meeting, before Jackie Jura announced the nomination of the 2012 BOD candidates, who were elected by member acclamation. Jay Krigsman of Krausz offered his updated visual presentation [...]

Here we see two Kihei area gulches, one untouched since last season’s floods, the other experiencing extensive heavy work by the Highways division of Maui County’s Department of Public Works occuring on 11/14/11.  Will this affect the impact on any flooding this winter, before the rains begin. Last season, our near shore waters were murkey and brown at [...]

Each November, the general membership elects the Board [...]

Remember the drastic situation last December & January along the near shoreline of No. Kihei as the “mud floods” desended? Concerned about this winter? The clean water committee of the Maui Nui Marine Resource Council is working to present a flood forum focusing on how to keep No. Kihei from being swept away and more degredation [...]
