The County of Maui, Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR), is completing an Adaptation Plan for for the newly-expanded Hoaloha Park, Wailuku Ahupua‘a, Wailuku Moku, Maui (TMKs: 3-7-003:002, 3-7-008:008, and -017) and greater vicinity. The Adaptation Plan will support the DPR’s future planning and implementation efforts for adaptation, park improvements and the proper stewardship and management of Hoaloha Park. It will also guide the expansion and improvement of Hoʻaloha Park as well as its adaptation to sea level rise impacts and coastal hazards. The goals of the Hoaloha Park Adaptation Plan are: 1) Planning for adaptation to sea level rise impacts and coastal hazards, and, 2) Exploring ideas and perspectives for park improvements and expansion as well as the proper stewardship and management of these lands. The project involves a Project Advisory Committee (PAC) consisting of up to 15 community members and stakeholders whose purpose and goals were to generate community input and perspectives to inform and help direct the Ho‘aloha Park Adaptation Plan. Community ideas and perspectives were specifically sought regarding: 1) Ways that Ho‘aloha Park can adapt to sea level rise impacts and coastal hazards; 2) Desired improvements, expansions of Ho‘aloha Park; and 3) The proper stewardship and management of Ho‘aloha Park. The current project is proactive planning and preparation with no developments or ground disturbance presently proposed. The future expansion and improvement of Hoʻaloha Park is likely to include new development, construction, and/or modifications to existing structures and resources.
