2 weeks ago | civilbeat.org | Jeremy Hay |Ben Angarone

After two years, a long-damaged bridge is suddenly fixed and a past Fix It! column gets results along Date Street on Oʻahu. It was a long way down for a long time. The bridge on South King Street passes under the Kapiʻolani Boulevard on-ramp to the H-1 and crosses over the Mānoa Pālolo Stream more than 30 feet below.

The Honolulu, Maui and Kauaʻi police departments told Civil Beat late last year that they did not have partnership agreements with the federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, best known as ICE — the spearhead of President Donald Trump’s mass deportation campaign. That turns out not to be true.

4 weeks ago | civilbeat.org | Jeremy Hay

Nonprofit that ran the dislocated worker grant program will get the new funding to cover expenses it already racked up. A Maui wildfire recovery jobs program that shut down a month ago when funding ran out has received an infusion of federal money. But the program it ran won’t be revived – not yet, at least – because there are still outstanding expenses to be settled from its previous run.
New City And State Homeless Directors Face Monumental Task

1 month ago | civilbeat.org | Jeremy Hay

At last count, homelessness rose in Hawaiʻi after falling for several years. Roy Miyahira and Jun Yang have just stepped almost simultaneously into a pivotal moment in the landscape of homelessness in Hawaiʻi. Each is the third person to hold their position in as many years. That may be where their obvious similarities end. Miyahira came out of private sector retirement with no experience in homelessness services to become director of homeless solutions for the City and County of Honolulu.

No reason was given for the sudden change at Kūhiō Park Terrace, approved Thursday by the Hawaiʻi Public Housing Authority’s board.
