IMPEACH MAYOR MIKE VICTORINO

Mike Victorino has shown over and over during his first two years in office that he does not have the experience, judgment, or temperament to be the Mayor of Maui County.

Council member urges county to end injection wells case:

"Council Member Kelly Takaya King is calling for the county to end its yearslong legal battle over West Maui injection wells after a federal judge once again sided with four conservation groups who sued the county in 2012.

King urged Mayor Michael Victorino not to appeal after U.S. District Court Judge Susan Oki Mollway of the District of Hawaii issued an order Thursday saying that Maui County “must obtain a permit under the Clean Water Act consistent with the analysis established by the Supreme Court.”

“If it’s a name without full disclosure about where the money is coming from, the voters don’t have the tools they need to know about it. People have the right to ask how participating in a campaign like that could potentially tie the mayor’s hands.”

"Mayor’s Ethics Board Nominee, Rejected for “Bullying” Facebook Posts"

"Kathryn Ghean, who chaired Maui’s Republican Party for a decade, accused the Maui County Council on Friday of “bullying” behavior after its recent rejection of her nomination to the Maui County Board of Ethics because of items she posted on her page.

There are numerous references to Donald Trump, with pictures of “Trump’s Army,” and another featuring Jesus with his hands on Trump’s shoulders. In addition, Ghean posted news stories from conservative websites that, among other items, referenced the widely-discredited assertion that Hunter Biden gave White House access to “communist-aligned Chinese elites.” Another post links to a story claiming that Trump may have been deliberately infected with COVID. A post about Planned Parenthood was stamped “False Information” by Facebook. Another post reads, “We are living in a time where Satan doesn’t even hide anymore, and the world still can’t see him.”

"Paltin was quickly joined by Council Member Keani Rawlins-Fernandez who said Ghean’s “activity on social media” was “not reflective of someone who should be participating on the Board of Ethics.”

"You go tell her…’You are not going to take over this County without a fight from the mayor and the people. I will guarantee you that.’” His comments were hostile and disturbing. They eerily paralleled the “We’re taking back our country” mentality that jolted the nation on January 6 as it watched an angry mob overrun the U.S. Capitol. The resulting mayhem cost lives and briefly brought the nation’s business to a standstill."

Victorino’s inflammatory remarks again raise questions about his temperament.

"It’s time for the County of Maui to act."

For many of us who grew up around Maui’s North Shore, Baby Beach — also known as Wawau Point — holds precious memories as a place where we went to swim, snorkel, explore, fish, exercise or just enjoy time with family and friends. With convenient beachfront parking, Baby Beach for years offered...

Community testifiers amid weeks of debate came out in strong support for the measure to mitigate overtourism and the only opponents were industry and union representatives, she said.

Saying the measure won’t pass legal muster and lacks efficacy, Mayor Michael Victorino on Tuesday afternoon vetoed a highly debated bill to address overtourism concerns by pausing visitor accommodation development in West and South Maui. The Maui County Council voted 6-2 on July 2 to approve Bill ...

“We are not Disneyland. People live here,” says Kai Duponte, a Native Hawaiian who was born and raised on Maui, responding to the unprecedented numbers of tourists to the island. “Although no one wants to stop tourism altogether, when we cannot enjoy our own home due to the crowds, we realize that we have become second-class citizens to the tourism industry.”

Maui residents blame irresponsible recommendations for overtourism and bad behavior.

“[There are] a ton of people in my family and my friend network [on the list], and people [I went] to high school with. Their grandparents are on the list. Their parents are on the list. One of them, her grandma died waiting on the list. And I'm like, this is disturbing. You know what I mean? Like, these are Hawaiian Homelands.”

Not Pono. Not authentic. Just political posturing to cover his a** when COVID explodes in schools.

Calling for return to school delay 48 hours before the first day of school - while supporting full blown tourism - and knowing full well that nothing would come of this last minute weekend staged press event. Shame on you!

In light of new CDC data showing the Delta variant can spread as easily as Chickenpox, Maui Mayor Michael Victorino is asking the Hawaiʻi Department of Education, Department of Health and the Ige Administration to postpone the return of classroom learning until the impacts of the current COVID surg...

“The mayor seems to only be listening to developers,” Molina told The Maui News. “He’s not listening to the people, the families, that are begging us for affordable housing. We are in a real crisis here.”

Saying a new affordable housing bill will only intensify housing scarcity for Maui County, Mayor Michael Victorino vetoed the measure on Monday. Introduced by Council Member Mike Molina, Bill 10 requires that 201H fast-tracked housing projects have at least 75 percent affordable units unless a lower...
