Mauao Update
Thank you to everyone who came out last night to hear from us and take part in an important community conversation.
Restoration work on Mauao begins next week. A formal blessing will mark the start of essential repairs, work will take months and safety is our number one priority.
Residents raised thoughtful questions on access, safety, restoration and remembrance. The clear message: keep communicating, work together, and reopen safely for our community’s future.
