text: The fundamental issue is these are NOT SUSTAINABLE in Hawaii. The fact they needed a grant-in-aid from Hawaii taxpayers should prove that. This is totally bizarre as Hawaii has a glut of office space with the vacancy rate creeping towards 20%. Why on earth should the state government get involved in this? If it was industrial space, where the Honolulu vacancy rate is less than 1%, it could work but $900/mo for a permanent office, you can find stuff for that now. I wish the SA was more like civil beat as they would be scrutinized properly.
