Neighborhood Ballots Due May 17

The Neighborhood Commission has mailed passcodes to 180,000 eligible voters who may cast ballots from their own computers or at city venues for contested seats on the 2013-2015 neighborhood boards.

Voting period has begun and ends May 17, and several boards have contested races, according to Bryan Mick of the commission office.

Those without computers can vote online at Kapolei Hale, or on the second floor of the Mission Memorial Building next to Honolulu Hale, from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. weekdays.

Residents also can vote by phone using a unique passcode (contained in the mailings).

For more information, call 768-3716 or visit www1.honolulu.gov/nco. The website also has candidate profiles and photos.

Newly elected board members assume office July 1.
