One year ago this month, the Lahaina wildfire in Maui killed more than 100 people, destroyed over 2,200 structures and displaced nearly 13,000 residents, the police said.
Soon after the blaze, Hawaii Gov. Josh Green and his lieutenant governor signed a series of emergency proclamations barring landlords on Maui from evicting tenants or raising rents in most cases. Despite that, some Maui property owners have capitalized on the crisis by pushing out tenants so they can house wildfire survivors for a lot more money.
Honolulu Civil Beat reporter Nick Grube, in partnership with ProPublica, has been speaking to people who have been displaced from their homes on Maui and investigating how one of the country’s most expensive rental markets was made worse by both the fires and the aid programs that followed.
This is Peter Sunday’s story.
