RES26-235 HART Board Appointment
At a glance
- What: a resolution appointing Anthony J. Baldomero Jr., a retired associate director of the Hawaii Campaign Spending Commission, to the Honolulu Authority for Rapid Transportation (HART) board of directors.
- Where it stands: reported out for adoption by the committee on 2026-10-21 with no objections and no testimony.
- Next: full Council vote, expected November 5.
Key points
- Baldomero's stated priority is finishing the funded segment through Kakaako; any extension would need funding and legislative authority for a surcharge.
- Tupola asked him to keep rail station parking in her district in mind (UH West Oahu lot, Keone'ae and Kroc Center stations).
- Cordero asked him to meet all Councilmembers before the vote.
