AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Hawaiian Electric Rate Hearings: Oahu’s public hearing on Hawaiian Electric’s request to raise rates is set for Oct. 2, in person and online, as the PUC considers a two-step rebasing plan that would lift typical monthly bills by about $11 on Oahu, Molokai and Lanai. Kaua‘i Recovery & Local Economy: After Hurricane Lowell, Kaua‘i crews report power restored for more than 91% of KIUC members, with North Shore restoration and Wainiha/Ha‘ena cleanup continuing while officials urge visitors to spend locally and avoid the hardest-hit areas. Tourism Pressure After Storm: Kaua‘i small businesses say the visitor slowdown is hitting cash flow hard, with layoffs and months of cleanup ahead, as leaders debate when tourists should return. Housing Vouchers Squeeze: A new UHERO study finds Section 8 voucher funding in Hawaii has risen, but rising rents and limited voucher availability are still leaving thousands of eligible families underassisted. Banking Milestone: American Savings Bank begins trading on the NYSE after its IPO, marking a new chapter for the Hawaii-based lender. O‘ahu Enforcement: Honolulu City Council advances higher fines for unlawful peddling, aiming to deter repeat violations in public areas. OHA Trust Fund Gains: OHA’s Native Hawaiian Trust Fund has nearly doubled over the past decade, topping $700 million, with 2026 gains reported as strong. Power & Roads Progress on Kaua‘i: Crews continue restoring power and key roads as recovery work ramps up ahead of more rain risks. Business Expansion: Ewa Moving Co. announces a 40% fleet increase and expanded climate-controlled storage to meet O‘ahu relocation demand. AI & Policy Debate: National coverage highlights renewed calls for AI regulation and scrutiny, echoing local interest in how tech policy could affect jobs and safety.
