Council Members to discuss Bus Transportation Programs in Maui County

WAILUKU, HAWAII – The efficacy of Bus Transportation Programs in Maui County will be the focal point of the Maui County Council’s Housing, Human Services, and Transportation Committee meeting.

I’m looking forward to a significant amount of public testimony.”

Committee Chair Crivello invited representatives from Roberts Hawaii, Maui Economic Opportunity, Inc., Department of Housing and Human Concerns, youth and senior groups, and the Commission on Persons with Disabilities to participate on a panel.

The meeting will be held on Thursday, February 14, 2013, at 9:00 a.m. in the Council Chamber on the 8th floor of the Kalana O Maui building, 200 South High Street, Wailuku, Hawaii.
