Maui County Council approved an intergovernmental agreement for the state to purchase the 6.2-acre Haggai Institute, intending to convert the former Maui Sun Hotel into affordable housing. Initial occupants will include wildfire survivors and emergency responders, with long-term plans for affordable workforce housing, with 25% allocated for teachers. The agreement outlines collaboration between Maui County and HHFDC for development. The acquisition, funded by a $45 million legislative appropriation, preceded the August 8 wildfires.
