Sewer rates, carryover savings, and department staffing
Maui County
Summary
Members pressed the department on carryover funds, the recent 9% sewer rate increase, and an 18% vacancy rate that slows projects. The department says carryover goes back into lowering next year's rates and that budget season will clarify project funding.
