Tsutsui Leasing Space For Maui Office From County
From The Maui News:
Perhaps as early as this week Lt. Gov. Shan Tsutsui will officially have an office on Maui in the county’s Kalana O Maui building.
Last month, the Maui County Council passed a resolution to lease space on the ninth floor of the building to Tsutsui for $1 a year. Tsutsui lives in Waiehu and still spends some weekdays and weekends on Maui after working on Oahu for much of the week.
On Friday, Tsutsui said that the 10-by-10-foot office will give him a place for official meetings and alleviate the need for him to run from place to place to meet people, as well as enhance county and state collaboration.
He thanked Mayor Alan Arakawa and the County Council for leasing the space to him for his office. Read the full story.
