No 03 Waiʻalae - Kāhala Neighborhood Board Regular Meeting October 2026

The Waiʻalae–Kāhala Neighborhood Board’s October 28, 2026 regular meeting covered public safety, water service, homelessness, community planning, and education. A council representative described a proposed shopping-cart ordinance expected to receive a committee hearing the following week and invited residents to testify; no procurement or spending decision was associated with it. Kapiʻolani Community College also announced logistics for the sold-out November 7 Hawaiʻi Food & Wine Festival event on campus, including private security and seven officers assigned to traffic and perimeter duties. The college discussed the culinary institute project, which still had punch-list work before turnover, and a goal of opening its restaurant next year.

The board approved its September meeting minutes, established a permanent interaction group to review regional development plans, and voted to support a University of Hawaiʻi law school clinic focused on special-education and student-discipline advocacy. It also discussed park after-hours concerns, an unresolved unpermitted fence, and community outreach. No government contract awards, bids, purchasing approvals, or budget allocations were identified.
