Mākena Settlement

Maui Tomorrow along with Hoʻoponopono O Mākena and Sierra Club of Hawaii – filed suit in the Environmental Court in 2017 challenging the Maui Planning Commission’s finding of no significant impact for ATC Makena’s 47-acre project surrounding Makena Landing. The settlement protects the environment and cultural sites of Mākena and also supports the needs of Maui’s local families. The negotiations resulted in at least 60 units of housing, affordable in perpetuity and priced at or below median income levels – with first priority for these homes be given to families with historical ties to the Mākena area, giving kamaʻaina a chance to return to the land.
