Kaua'i Mayor signs fifteenth supplementary emergency proclamation

News Release from County of Kauai, June 20, 2020

Mayor Derek S. K. Kawakami has signed a fifteenth supplementary emergency proclamation on Saturday, June 20, for the County of Kaua‘i, extending the emergency relief period for damages sustained during the April 2018 flood.

The fifteenth supplementary emergency proclamation further declares the provisions of all previous emergency proclamations. The disaster emergency relief period shall now continue until terminated 60 days after June 20, 2020, or by a separate proclamation – whichever comes first.

The purpose of the emergency proclamation is to provide continued relief for disaster damages, losses, and suffering, and to protect the health, safety, and welfare of Kaua‘i residents and visitors.

(WRONG. The purpose is to re-shape Hanalei as a tourist destination.)
