Park Maui expansion to West Maui and resident benefits
Maui County
Summary
Bill 68 brings paid parking to three Lahaina lots and locks in resident perks at the Wailuku Garage. The resident town benefit is flexible — free hours can be set by posted signage rather than rewritten into law each time. Beach parking stays free for residents, but only if you scan your Hawaii driver's license.

Impact analysis
Paid parking revenue goes to the Park Maui fund, except 500 Front Street revenue, which is earmarked for the Hawaiian Cultural Restoration Revolving Fund.
Hawaii residents get free or discounted parking at the Wailuku Garage and priority beach parking on weekend mornings.
Part-time residents without Hawaii driver's licenses and visitors pay full rates and have voiced complaints, particularly in West Maui.
