In recent community meetings, we’ve had robust discussions on safeguarding communities from illegal fireworks, little fire ants and wildfire prevention.  In September, State Fire Marshal Dori Booth and Neighborhood Security Watch volunteers highlighted tips to safeguard kupuna and prevent crime.

​

At the same time, I’m glad to report that Papakōlea neighbors have joined forces to prevent Little Fire Ants from spreading in our region.

 

In lower Makiki/McCully, I encourage neighbors to check out the work of the Green Fee Advisory Council.  Its recommendations could help fund climate resiliency in our Ala Wai Watershed region.

 

Community safety is our collective responsibility,
