Honolulu has a new Treasurer, Malia Schwartz. After long and faithful years as Honolulu's Treasurer, Annie Kim has resigned. Her work in that post was always exemplary, and she will be a very hard act to follow. We will miss her at the office, but hope she will drop in to see us when she can.

Welcome, and thank you, Malia. Honolulu continues its work on the bus rapid transit program.

Kauai has a new President, Carol White. Kauai completed a County Beach Park Study which urged support for a separate line item for each County Beach Park in the budget.

Hawaii is continuing to work on domestic violence, shoreline access, watersheds, gambling, education, and reforestation of the Big Island. There is increasing worry about the evidence of "ice" distribution and addiction on the island of Hawaii.

These short summaries of the works of the local units can in no way approximate the huge amount of work they have done.
