Lanikaula Street Hilo, HI 96720 June 2010 Bus Stop Location Project for County of Hawaii Mass Transit Agency Inventory and Initial Screening Report Introduction County of Hawaii Mass Transit Agency Bus Stop Location Project Inventory and Initial Screening Report I. Introduction The County of Hawaii Mass Transit Agency (MTA) currently operates on a flagstop basis. With increased usage and traffic, MTA is moving into a designated bus stop program. SSFM International, Inc. (SSFM) was contracted to identify locations for bus stops islandwide and to determine if locations warrant an official bus stop listed in the Hawaii County Code. Official bus stops will need to be Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant. This Inventory and Initial Screening Report constitutes the deliverable for Task One of the work program for this study. Based on field work conducted and meetings held with bus drivers, SSFM developed a complete inventory of bus stops islandwide. The inventory, consisting of approximately 575 stops, was then divided into priority and non-priority stops for the remainder of the work tasks in this study. Priority stops, totaling approximately 100 stops, were recommended based on surrounding land use, frequency, and local knowledge. The list of priority stops is shown in (Appendix 1). These stops handle the bulk of the ridership and are in close vicinity to schools, resorts, medical facilities, and urban centers.

  • A Portrait of EMMA KAʻILIKAPUOLONO METCALF
    HĀNAU MA KA LOLO, FOR THE BENEFIT OF HER RACE: a portrait of EMMA KAʻILIKAPUOLONO METCALF BECKLEY NAKUINA A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAIʻI AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN HAWAIIAN STUDIES AUGUST 2012 By Jaime Uluwehi Hopkins Thesis Committee: Jonathan Kamakawiwoʻole Osorio, Chairperson Lilikalā Kameʻeleihiwa Wendell Kekailoa Perry DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to Kanalu Young. When I was looking into getting a graduate degree, Kanalu was the graduate student advisor. He remembered me from my undergrad years, which at that point had been nine years earlier. He was open, inviting, and supportive of any idea I tossed at him. We had several more conversations after I joined the program, and every single one left me dizzy. I felt like I had just raced through two dozen different ideas streams in the span of ten minutes, and hoped that at some point I would recognize how many things I had just learned. I told him my thesis idea, and he went above and beyond to help. He also agreed to chair my committee. I was orignally going to write about Pana Oʻahu, the stories behind places on Oʻahu. Kanalu got the Pana Oʻahu (HWST 362) class put back on the schedule for the first time in a few years, and agreed to teach it with me as his assistant. The next summer, we started mapping out a whole new course stream of classes focusing on Pana Oʻahu. But that was his last summer.

  • Ho'omalimali and the Succession Model of Political Inheritance In
    Ho'omalimali and the Succession Model of Political Inheritance in Hawai'i: A Study of the Electoral Dominance of Americans of Japanese Ancestry in State and Congressional Politics Skyler Allyn Korgel ANS 678H Departmental Honors in Asian Studies The University of Texas at Austin May 2018 Dr. Chiu-Mi Lai Department of Asian Studies Thesis Supervisor Dr. Patricia Maclachlan Department of Government Second Reader Abstract “Ho’omalimali” and the Succession Model of Political Inheritance in Hawai'i: A Study of the Electoral Dominance of Americans of Japanese Ancestry in State and Congressional Politics Author: Skyler Korgel Thesis Supervisor: Dr. Chiu-Mi Lai Second Reader: Dr. Patricia Maclachlan This thesis seeks to discover the underlying causes and factors for the unique political situation in Hawai'i where a minority demographic has been historically dominant. In researching historical and political contexts, as well as institutional and electoral factors, analysis of all these findings has shown a constructed “succession model” behind the dominance of Americans of Japanese Ancestry (AJA) through the Democratic Party. The thesis also examines the implications of the disrupted and further divisive political climate of the Hawai'i Democratic Party since the death of universally respected and revered Senator Daniel Inouye (1924-2012). Senator Inouye’s death brought to an end a political career that spanned nearly six decades, and commenced a new era for Hawai'i political leadership. Quite possibly, this new era has also fractured the succession model. In a 75% minority state, throughout the past 65 years, Americans of Japanese ancestry have managed to gain a stranglehold over the Hawai'i Democratic Party, and therefore the Hawai’i state government itself.
