Harry Kim interviewed in one of the newspaper articles, I can't find it at the moment, claims he rarely ever travelled during his terms as mayor

I think this is the quote you remembered:
Former Big Island Mayor Harry Kim said he rarely traveled -- about once a year to Oahu and twice to Maui during his eight years in office.
"That's a lot of money for traveling," he said.
Kim said Kenoi is not being watched like he was. Kim said he rarely used his county credit card and added that he was taken to task by county officials back in 2002 when he spent $100 on his card to buy lunches for school children on a field trip.
"You go through it and you're not reminded or reprimanded and you're not punished. Obviously you've been given special treatment," Kim said.
