Where Are Maui's Tax Dollars Going?
The FY27 Mayor's proposed budget is $1.62B in County Funds — $58.0M more than FY26, with the entire increase covered by a 42% surge in bond financing. Property tax revenue is essentially flat year-over-year (+$22K on $660M) — despite rate changes that included a rate cut for homes assessed above $4.5M — while sewer, water, and refuse fees are all rising.
