Realtors Association of Maui opposes Bill 9, urges a ‘balanced approach’ to housing crisis
The Realtors Association of Maui (RAM) formally announced its opposition on Friday to Mayor Richard Bissen’s proposed Bill 9, which seeks to eliminate approximately 7,000 short-term rentals (STRs) in apartment-zoned areas by 2026. Mayor Richard Bissen responded to a request for comment from Maui Now saying, Bill 9 is “one part of a collective strategy” to address Maui’s severe housing crisis.
