E Komo Mai Apartments

The re-development of this community preserved the affordable housing subsidy, protecting 45 low-income family homes near downtown Hilo. To fulfill UHC’s mission of going beyond shelter, to create “homes” that transform residents and their communities, the attractively re-designed apartments were updated with Energy Star appliances, granite countertops, hard surface flooring, new windows, roofing, siding, bronzed decorative screens and Energy Star lighting. ADA accessibility was upgraded, providing safety features for elderly and disabled residents. Sustainable landscaping and solar panels were added for increased energy efficiencies and cost savings to residents. An on-site community room and open-air pavilion BBQ/picnic area were added to give residents a place to gather. Social service programming by UHC’s non-profit partner, provided in collaboration with community-based organizations, empowers resident families.
