AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoPublic Health: The Hawai‘i Department of Health confirmed a new travel-related dengue case on O‘ahu involving a visitor. DOH says the statewide count stays at five because the person is a nonresident, and local transmission risk is low since the visitor had left the islands and wasn’t infectious at departure. Officials are urging everyone to cut mosquito breeding by removing standing water around homes and workplaces. Tourism & Travel Costs: Economists say a U.S.-Iran agreement could eventually ease Hawaii’s gas and electricity prices, but any relief at the pump may take time as global oil markets adjust. Local Hospitality: The Hawaii Hotel & Restaurant Show returns to the Neal S. Blaisdell Center on June 17–18, with free entry (advance registration/approval required), plus food demos and locally made products. Beach Access: Kahalu‘u and Kohanaiki Beach Parks in Kona remain closed while debris removal is completed. Safety & Operations: Honolulu’s Ocean Safety Department is moving to a fully digital reporting system to speed incident updates and improve beach response. Community for Visitors & Families: Maui County FCU’s Adopt a Backpack drive runs through July 18 to help students get ready for school.
