Lahaina Unity News Today

Police on Maui have identified the 100th and final known victim of the blaze that swept through Lahaina in August, in the deadliest wildfire to hit the United States in more than a century.

Gov. Green announced a Housing Hawaiʻi’s ʻOhana plan, vowing to sign into law any legislation that will help move short-term rentals and vacant investment properties owned by non-residents into the local housing market. He also is said he would declare a moratorium on all short-term rentals in West Maui if he is unable to find enough housing for displaced families in the next six weeks.

People from across the state joined displaced Lahaina residents for the largest gathering in town since the Aug. 8 fires.
