it cost taxpayers $94,000 in staff salary, $55,000 in travel expenditures and $2,000 in maintenance

$151,000 is nothing compared to the unnecessary "overhead" of Kim's emergency "management".

Yes.
County got money.
State got money.
Feds got money.
Displaced lower Puna residents got ono grinds at The Hub.
