Executive authority is vested in the mayor, elected by the voters on a non-partisan basis to a four-year term (with a limit of two consecutive full terms). Legislative authority is vested in the nine-member county council. All seats in the county council have residency requirements; however, all voters in Maui County may vote in elections for all nine seats regardless of residence. Members of the county council are elected on a non-partisan basis to two-year terms (with a limit of five consecutive full terms). The current mayor of Maui County is Alan Arakawa since January 2, 2011. Arakawa had served a previous term as mayor from 2002 to 2006. Maui County was the only county in the United States won by Dennis Kucinich during his unsuccessful campaign for the Democratic Party nomination to the presidency in 2004.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=US Election Atlas )〕 The ''Department of Liquor Control'' is the agency which regulates and enforces state and county laws regarding the manufacture, importation, sale and consumption of intoxicating liquors. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maui County, Hawaii」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
