April 2024 UPDATE On The Lahaina, Maui Fire Aftermath
– 8 months later still no building permits are being issued even after cleanup has taken place
– For reference after the 1994 hurricane it only took 1 month to get building permits
“The Army Corps of Engineers have cleaned the toxic debris from around 500 homes so far. The sad thing is that no building permits have been issued at all after eight months. Nobody’s allowed to rebuild. Now compare that to Hurricane Iniki on the island of Kauai.
In 1994, building permits were issued one month after the hurricane. I know hurricane and fires are different, but still, why is it taking so long for people to be rebuilding?
That’s the update guys. It’s very sad that people can’t rebuild and everything is taking so long. You wonder why. I’m just reporting guys. Another sad news is that all the fire victims staying in hotels right now, there’s still thousands of them, have to move out by July 1st. Where are they gonna go? There’s no housing in Maui. It’s a nightmare.“
