Mayor Kenoi at a Community Talk Story in Nā‘ālehu in March 2012.
Mayor Kenoi and his cabinet meet with you, listen to you, answer your questions and respond to your concerns. He has kept his promise to listen and be open to the diverse voices and points of view of residents across the island.
The Mayor has held nearly 50 Talk Story sessions during his administration, taking his cabinet out into the community. In cafeterias and meeting halls throughout all the districts of Hawai‘i Island, people had their questions answered by the leaders of County government.

“Reaching out to our communities and making sure all interests and viewpoints are represented is critical as we work together to navigate one of the most difficult economic environments in our history.”
- Mayor Billy Kenoi
