No 23 ʻEwa Neighborhood Board Regular Meeting August 2026

The No 23 ʻEwa Neighborhood Board held its regular meeting on August 14, 2026, facilitated by the City and County Neighborhood Commission Office. Key procurement-related discussions included updates on the Eva Beach Sewer Improvement Project presented by the Department of Environmental Services. The project, which involves connecting over 900 homes currently using cesspools to the city sewer system, was postponed due to overwhelming community opposition primarily related to the anticipated sewer fees and easement concerns. The city proposed to cover the cost of lateral connections to encourage participation, but the project requires community support to proceed. Additionally, $500,000 in capital improvement funding was announced for the East Kapolei Transit-Oriented Development environmental impact study, indicating ongoing planning for mixed-use development near the Kualakai rail station. Other topics included traffic safety concerns near Holamua Elementary School, updates on community policing and public safety, and various community announcements. No contract awards or vendor selections were reported during this meeting.
