Good 15 minutes of video from the meeting explaining the runway issues and the options.

the car rental center thing is a complete Hawaii DOT boondoogle in my opinion. no idea why they need it here. This is not a big city airport.
What about other alternatives, like building a new runway parallel to the existing 2/20? Wouldn't that be less disruptive than the other options, or what about night construction and replace in place?
The EIS is going to take forever, none of these options are going to happen any time soon.
