BEST COUNTY OFFICIAL
Elle Cochran
For the, I don’t know, umpteenth time in a row, MauiTime readers have chosen Maui County Councilmember Elle Cochran, who represents the Westside, as their favorite county official. She helped found the Save Honolua Coalition, and has long advocated pro-environmental and slow-growth policies. Back in her 2014 reelection campaign, facing an opponent with solid financial backing from big development interests (that would be Ka‘ala Buenconsejo, who got himself named director of the county’s Parks Department after his defeat), Cochran still won handily. MauiTime readers have longed lovee Cochran, so this latest win comes as no surprise. (AP)
