Pāʻia Sugar Mill Redevelopment Project

Maui County

Description

Bills 109 and 115 would change the community plan designation and zoning on 19.933 acres to Light Industrial so the old sugar mill site can become a manufacturing and small-business village. The Planning Commission already recommended approval with conditions; the committee discussed further conditions but took no vote.

Impact summary

The project aims to restore manufacturing jobs, workforce housing, food processing, cold storage and community event space in the heart of Pāʻia; the vote is a recommendation only — the full Council takes it up on first reading.
