Ruggles to host meeting Thursday in Keaau

Puna Councilwoman Jen Ruggles will host a meeting Thursday to update constituents on Hawaii County issues.

The meeting will be from 6-7:30 p.m. at the Keaau Community Center.

Topics will include the bus system, rat lungworm disease, roads, taxes, vacation rentals, little fire ants and more.

“I want to give the public an opportunity to hear from me directly,” Ruggles said in a press release, “and more importantly, give me their valuable feedback.”

The presentation will be followed by a question and answer session and snacks will be provided.
