Feds To Give Maui $233K

By /
Maui is getting a $233,129 sliver of $34.6 million in federal funds that the Department of Transportation is doling out to help veterans and military families with job access. 

U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood announced on Wednesday that Hawaii’s share will go toward the creation of a new Maui call center that will be integrated with the existing county Aging and Disability Resource. 

The center will allow multiple transportation providers to “streamline eligibility, application and scheduling,” according to a statement issued by LaHood’s office.
