Public campgrounds in South Maui

Maui County

Summary

The 'support public campgrounds' policy has sat in three county plans for years with nothing to show for it. The committee kept it — with an asterisk marking it as redundant-but-wanted — after CPAC Chair Rob Weltman and members tied it to unhoused residents and lost traditional beach camping.
