No 11 Ala Moana-Kaka'ako Neighborhood Board Regular Meeting May 2026

The City and County Neighborhood Commission Office held the No 11 Ala Moana-Kaka'ako Neighborhood Board Regular Meeting on May 27, 2026. The meeting included updates from the Honolulu Fire Department and Police Department on recent incidents and safety tips, with discussions on community concerns such as homelessness, public safety, and neighborhood cleanliness. A significant portion of the meeting focused on a presentation by the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) regarding the redevelopment and land stewardship of the Kakaako Makai area, including environmental assessments, zoning, and future planning considerations. The OHA discussed ongoing environmental site assessments funded by EPA Brownfields grants to ensure safe development of the historically industrial and landfill-affected lands. Community members raised questions about long-term climate change impacts, housing versus commercial development balance, and engagement with military land issues. The meeting also covered neighborhood board administrative matters, upcoming events, and constituent concerns such as noise, graffiti, and property tax assessments. While no specific contract awards or procurement decisions were made, the discussion of redevelopment plans and environmental remediation efforts indicates potential future procurement and development activities in the Kakaako Makai area.
