Jeff Gilbreath â In charge of contracted plan Following the advice to wait until an upcoming affordable housing plan is considered, the Maui County Council Affordable Housing Committee put the brakes on a proposal that would have amended the county’s affordable housing rules. Committee Chairman Gabe Johnson on Wednesday deferred a bill with four proposed amendments to the county’s affordable housing rules, including changing the definition of residential workforce housing to 120 percent of area median income or less, limiting townhomes and multifamily dwellings to 100 percent area median income, authorizing the mayor and the council to promote affordable housing projects and waitlists and increasing the waitlist offer period from 90 to 180 days.
