Oʻahu · Neighborhood Board No. 25
1. Waipiʻo Acres; 2. Melemanu; 3. Mililani Town; 4. Mililani Uka
Names come from the city's GIS layer, which prints them without ʻokina or kahakō. Where the official gazetteer carries the same place name, the Ledger prints the gazetteer's spelling; a name the gazetteer does not carry is left as the layer printed it. The layer's own spelling: 1. Waipio Acres; 2. Melemanu; 3. Mililani Town; 4. Mililani Uka.
On Sept. 25 the Board of Land and Natural Resources is asked to cancel a governor's executive order on two parcels in Waipiʻo and deed them to the Department of Education. [source]

Checking the National Weather Service for alerts in effect…
Checking the Department of Health…
Read live when this page opens: the National Weather Service's alerts for the forecast zones covering Mililani-Waipiʻo (HIZ010, HIZ011), and the state Department of Health Clean Water Branch's open advisories (brown water, sewage spills, high bacteria) for the island, which the department names by beach or coastline rather than by area. Nothing here is stored or rewritten; each agency's own wording and dates are shown.
Checking the Department of Transportation's closure schedule…
Read live from the state Department of Transportation's lane closure map layer when this page opens: approved closures on state highways in and near Mililani-Waipiʻo (within the area's bounding box, so a closure just outside may appear), from now through the next seven days, in the department's words. County streets are not included. Schedules can change without notice and all work is weather permitting, the department says.

Honolulu 311 reports from the city's open data, Aug. 21, 2026 to Sept. 19, 2026, counted by ZIP code; ZIP codes do not follow board boundaries, so each line describes the ZIP. Counts only: no address, no description, no report number. Request types are the city's own. Categories the city labels “Homeless” count calls made to the city, not people: they say how often neighbors reported something, not how many people are unhoused, and the state's point-in-time count is the source for that. Reports about crime are not counted here.
No agenda for this board is on file yet. The Neighborhood Commission Office sends each board's agendas by email; the Ledger will carry them here, in the office's words, as they arrive.
The Planning Commission at their June 26, 2024 public hearing approved the modification of Condition No. 4 of 2020/SUP-7 (LUC Docket No. SP21-413) by extending the deadline to establish the 120-megawatt solar energy facility (SEF) for an additional 5...

The city's file records the use as each applicant typed it, so the same use appears under several spellings.
Counted from the city's static permit file (2005 to June 30, 2025), placed by the tax map key each permit carries; 2026 permits are in HNL Build and not in any open file. Counts and totals only: the Ledger does not publish a permit's address, applicant or contractor. How the count is made.

U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 2024 5-year estimates by ZIP Code Tabulation Area, read through the Census Reporter API. These are survey estimates; ± is the 90% margin of error. ZIP code areas do not follow board boundaries, so each row describes the ZIP, not the board area. A ZIP is shown when at least a tenth of it lies inside this area.
Oʻahu has one city government, so most decisions that reach Mililani-Waipiʻo are made for the whole island. Those records have one home each: City Council and committee agendas and every open land-use file.
