Plaintiffs Sue Maui County and Mayor for “Houseless Sweeps” at ‘Āmala Place
A lawsuit has been filed against the mayor and County of Maui arguing that the seizure of houseless peoples’ shelters and belongings at ‘Āmala Place near Kanahā Beach Park without first providing a hearing “violated their constitutional rights.”
Advocates for Unsheltered Houseless Residents Speak Out Against Amala “Sweep”
The county led cleanup effort of ‘Āmala Place in Kahului resulted in the removal of 58 tons of solid waste and 54 derelict vehicles this week, but not all are happy with the process and its impact on the unsheltered homeless individuals who were living in area encampments.
