FROM THE VISIONARY RADIO NEWS CENTER, I'M JEFF KING WITH MAUI TV NEWS.

IT'S JUST ABOUT A 50-50 MIX. FRESH NEW BLOOD AND ENTHUSIASM AND SEASONED VETERANS MAKE UP THE NEW MAUI COUNTY COUNCIL FOR THE 20-11 THROUGH 20-13 SESSION. THIS MORNING IN CHAMBERS, GLADYS BAISA, MIKE VICTORINO, DANNY MATEO AND JOE PONTANILLA WERE JOINED BY MIKE WHITE, ELLE COCHRAN AND DON COUCH AND REJOINED BY FORMER COUNCIL MEMBERS RIKI HOKAMA AND BOB CARROL. IN HIS KEYNOTE ADDRESS, MAUI SENATOR SHAN TSUTSUI - NOW THE PRESIDENT OF THE HAWAI'I SENATE - PROMISED MORE COOPERATION WITH THE MAUI COUNTY COUNCIL - AND PROMISED THAT, AS LONG AS HE'S IN OFFICE, THE COUNTY'S SHARE OF TRANSIENT ACCOMMODATION TAX REVENUES WILL NOT BE IN JEOPARDY.

TODAY'S CEREMONY FOLLOWED LAST EVENING'S INAUGURATION OF INCOMING MAYOR ALAN ARAKAWA.

AND TONIGHT PRESIDENT BARRACK OBAMA AND THE FIRST FAMILY WILL RETURN TO THE NATION'S CAPITOL AFTER THEIR HOLIDAY IN THE ISLANDS.

ISLAND WEATHER, MOSTLY CLEAR TONIGHT. LOOK FOR LOWS IN THE UPPER 60S. MOSTLY SUNNY AND BREEZY TOMORROW - HIGHS IN THE MID 80S.
