City and County of Honolulu. Mayor Rick Blangiardi. Office of the Mayor Rick Blangiardi. To fulfil the responsibility of the City and County of Honolulu to provide core City services to its residents and visitors alike, with safe, accessible, well-maintained public facilities, exceptional customer service, fiscal stewardship of tax dollars, and quality and comprehensive programs for all.
Rick Blangiardi has led a life of uncompromising service to Hawaii, his colleagues and especially his family. Decisively elected by the residents of Oahu, he is now leading the nearly one million people of the City and County of Honolulu, which ranks as the eleventh largest municipality in the country. Blangiardi took office January 2, and immediately went to work hiring a dedicated leadership team of more than 40 highly accomplished and experienced professionals to address the short and long term challenges facing the City.
Prior to being elected Mayor Blangiardi led a distinguished and award winning career as a media executive that spanned more than four decades. He emphasized how his leadership of the nonprofit expanded high school athletics options and helped programs survive the last economic recession.
He also highlighted his personal background as a local boy with a difficult upbringing. While the Blangiardi campaign focused on promoting Blangiardi as a decisive leader who had the experience to do the job of mayor, Amemiya took a different approach.
The Amemiya campaign made a point of proposing specific policy ideas. For instance, Amemiya was the first to release a pandemic recovery plan , although Blangiardi later followed suit. To address the high cost of living in Honolulu, Amemiya promoted a Housing For All plan that he said would address the 22,unit need on the island. Regarding police reform, Amemiya signaled an openness to demands from activists nationwide to increase accountability and transparency for officers.
Amemiya also envisioned an Office of Community Engagement to hear resident feedback and concerns. Before Amemiya was a candidate, he was a prolific donor to political campaigns, and Caldwell was the biggest recipient of his donations. In fact, he received a subject letter which means his conduct is within the scope of an investigation but he is not specifically a target of the investigation.
