Lane vs the Budget - kalakoa - 09-20-2018
Damage from Lane "about" $20M:

Less than a week later, $35M:

But that's OK, because County can just "redirect" the GET surcharge revenue (that we don't actually have until next year). Who needs transportation projects or more mass transit anyway.

The county is currently paying daily rental fees on Polynesian Adventure tour buses as it tries to rebuild its fleet.
“They do need the additional buses. They really do need more buses,” Sako said. “We cannot continue to lease the buses. It’s going to run us broke.”
the above take from https://www.hawaiitribune-herald.com/2018/09/20/hawaii-news/council-reallocates-get-surcharge-proceeds-to-help-pay-for-damages-from-hurricane-lane/
is this a kickback?
