ALA MOANA SATELLITE CITY HALL CLOSED FOR TODAY

           The Satellite City Hall at Ala Moana Shopping Center is again closed today (Wednesday, June 18) because of irritating fumes coming from renovation work at a neighboring location.

           The facility has been closed since Monday afternoon while the Center addresses the situation.  Several staffers still reported respiratory and eye irritation this morning, prompting a continuation of the closure. Employees in the office are being reassigned to other satellite locations until the problem is resolved.

           The Ala Moana Satellite is normally opened 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays.
