HRS §92-83
Neighborhood board meetings: handling sudden urgent issues
This section lets neighborhood and community boards discuss or act on sudden, urgent issues that arise after a meeting is announced but before it happens, if quick action is needed for public health, welfare, or safety. It treats such action like an emergency meeting.

The statute, as written — Neighborhood board meeting; community outreach board meeting; unanticipated events; public interest
An unanticipated event that occurs after public notice of a neighborhood board or community outreach board meeting has been issued, but before the scheduled meeting, may be the subject of discussion at the scheduled meeting if timely action on the matter is necessary for public health, welfare, and safety. At a duly noticed meeting, a board may take action on an unanticipated event in the public interest that is not on the agenda in the same manner as if the board had held an emergency meeting to take action on the issue, pursuant to section 92-8.
