Renewable energy grants cut

Maui County

Summary

The committee zeroed out a $50,000 renewable energy grant line, with members arguing the amount is too small to matter. Johnson and Rawlins-Fernandez floated a bigger idea: a zero-interest loan program for community renewable energy projects under the climate plan.
