What's Being Discussed
The Community-Based Economic Development (CBED) Advisory Council is holding a one-hour meeting on Tuesday, August 18, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. The council will cover the following topics:
- Approving meeting minutes from May 19, 2026 and July 28, 2026
- A proposed $75,000 loan to To Be Hawaiʻi, a Maui-based natural personal care company that sources ingredients from local Maui farms and manufactures products in Wailuku.
