Where the data comes from

• City website: https://www.honolulucitycouncil.org/
• Agendas and meeting calendar: https://hnldoc.ehawaii.gov/hnldoc/browse/agendas
• Meeting video: https://www.youtube.com/@HonoluluCityCouncil (streams tab); also Olelo TV Ch. 54
• Officials, agendas and video lists were collected from these official sources on 2026-10-22; meeting content comes from the transcripts as they are processed.
• Official records: Council journals (minutes) at https://hnldoc.ehawaii.gov/hnldoc/browse/minutes and committee written summaries for the video record, retrieved 2026-10-24.
• Issue and meeting pages were rebuilt on 2026-10-24 from the full text of the Council journals of July 8, August 12 and September 9, 2026, plus committee written summaries for Budget (September 22, October 20) and Zoning & Planning (September 24).

Data quality notes

• No agendas posted yet for meetings after Oct 22 (Nov council/committee dates not found; hnldoc browse page is JS-rendered).
• Oct 22 Government Efficiency & Customer Services agenda (id 749) time not confirmed so omitted.
• Regular Council Oct 7 is before window.
• Dates of Nov meetings unavailable.
• Council minutes are posted only through September 9, 2026 (a draft advance copy, not yet adopted); the October 7 regular meeting minutes are not yet posted. Committee records are written summaries, not formal minutes.
• Minutes for other committees (Energy, Environment & Sustainability; Housing, Homelessness & Parks; Infrastructure, Transportation & Technology; and others) and for earlier 2026 Council sessions have not been processed.
• The September 22 Budget meeting has a video link (from its summary) but no transcript yet. The September 24 Zoning & Planning and October 20 Budget meetings combine the official summary with video pages; the September 24 transcript is still pending.
• The journals give no discussion for many routine items (Bill 50 and Bill 29 on funds and property tax, Bill 55 and Bill 56 first reading), so those appear only on the meeting pages.
• Names follow the journals; two People pages were renamed to the journal spellings (Dylan Armstrong, Racquel Achiu).
