Survivors of the Aug. 8, 2023, Maui wildfires get to stay in temporary federal housing another year — through February 2027, Gov. “This extension is critical for Maui’s people and our state,” Green said Friday in a statement. Green said he reached out to Kristi Noem — U.S. Department of Homeland Security secretary — to advocate to extend Federal Emergency Management Agency housing for Maui survivors. Approximately 1,600 affordable housing units have been built across Maui County and close to 800 more are under construction. “This extension comes at a critical time, as we continue bringing permanent housing online during an ongoing housing crisis.”
