N.W. corner of Ohukai and Kaiola burned 8/7/21 about 4 pm

 

8/8/21 #kihei    Yesterday afternoon with strong trades blowing to the south, this past home of a mango grove and future home of work force homes, was ablaze.  Quick reaction by our Maui fire fighters had it seemingly extinguished in less than an hour.

The burn area is just a small portion of the development site for Hale Kaiola  https://gokihei.org/volunteer/what-else-on-affordable-housing-in-south-maui

Last word we had was the project was to commence construction this month.
