“Make it a community that residents and tourist can thrive in and be proud of, highlighting the Hawaiian culture from which it came - sharing Aloha always.”

Community Quote from Long-Term Planning Recovery Survey

Project Description and Purpose

This project will be a comprehensive rebuild plan for Lahaina focusing on business centers, public lands, circulation and mobility, and Front Street. This plan will build upon the vision expressed in the West Maui Community Plan, incorporating the National Historic Landmark District (NHLD) guidelines, the West Maui Community Corridor Plan and West Maui Greenway Plan. The proposed project will be finer grained than previous plans, identifying specific areas for mixed-use, parks, housing, transit hubs, and public facilities. It would be completed over multiple phases and may include subordinate plans and visions for Front Street, and public lands and parks. The project will require extensive community engagement including direct coordination with landowners. Following the completion of the Rebuild Lahaina Plan, the County may take the lead on rezoning the area to match the intention of the community. It may also identify needed future projects and a timeline for those projects.
