The next edition of Mayor Alan Arakawa’s “County on Your Corner” will run from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday, January 28, at the Queen Ka’ahumanu Center in Kahului.

“It is important to connect with people face to face,” said Arakawa.

“‘County on Your Corner,’ which is scheduled in a different location each month, is a good way for myself and members of my cabinet to interact with the community on the issues that are of most interest to them,” he said.

Members of the Arakawa Administration and other County officials will join the Mayor to answer questions and talk story with the public.

Among those planning to attend include: Council Member Joseph Pontanilla, Managing Director Keith Regan, Public Works Director David Goode, Public Works Deputy Director Rowena Dagdag-Andaya, Transportation Director JoAnne Johnson-Winer, Housing & Human Concerns Director JoAnn Ridao, and Water Director Dave Taylor.

In conjunction with this month’s event, the Mayor’s Office is coordinating a talent show on center stage featuring performers from the County of Maui.
