Subject: Department of Parks and Recreation's Evaluation of Applications for
2019 Public Access Open Space and Natural Resources Stewardship
Grants
Dear Chairman Chung and Members of the Hawaii County Council
The Department of Parks and Recreation has received four applications seeking stewardship
grants to maintain and preserve Hawaii County lands acquired through the Public Access,
Open Space and Natural Resources Preservation Fund. The fund balance was $3,208,485.84
as of September 30, 2019.
I have completed my review of the applications and am pleased to present my evaluation of
each proposal and determination about each applicant's ability to complete its respective project
according to the submitted project plan.
Kahua Olohu, Ka`u, Hawaii TMK: (3) 9-5-12:05
• Applicant Ho`omalu Ka`u ("Ho`omalu") is requesting $24,250 toward a project expected
to cost$75,962. Its matching share would be $51,712 or 68 percent of the total project
cost. Ho`omalu Ka`u submitted its application before the stated deadline and has
provided the required documentation.
This applicant proposes to continue to restore and prepare the property for traditional,
cultural uses and practices associated with Makahiki. Their specific purpose for this
calendar year is to clear the 13-acre property and establish a regular maintenance
schedule, replace the fencing along the highway and acquire tools for long term
maintenance of the property. Ho'omalu Ka'u continues to steward the subject property
through the Hawaii County Open Space and Natural Resources Maintenance Fund
Grant award since 2018 and so far has complied with the terms of its grant award.
However, I have some concerns over the following budgetary items:
1. Food $ 2,000
In my opinion, the Project Budget needs to be revised to be compliant with the Hawaii
County Charter.

has submitted its application before the stated deadline and has provided the required
documentation.
Kohana'iki `Ghana proposes to work with Project Coordinator, Mason Myrmo, schools,
community groups and volunteers to monitor and maintain Maiapilo (Caperis
Sandwichiana) a rare medicinal plant and Hylaeus, a rare yellow-faced bee. Kohanaiki
Ohana will continue to remove invasive species, out plant native plants and with school
groups to educate and implement work days. Kohanaiki Ohana continues to steward the
subject property through the Hawaii County Open Space and Natural Resources
Maintenance Fund Grant award since 2018 and so far has complied with the terms of its
grant award.
However, I have some concerns over the following budgetary items:
1. Snacks/T-Shirts/Bumper stickers $400
In my opinion, the Project Budget needs to be revised to be compliant with the Hawaii
County Charter.
Waipi`o Valley Lookout, Hamakua, Hawaii TMK: (3) 4-8-04:06

Pohaha I Ka Lani has submitted its application before the stated deadline and has
provided the required documentation.
Pohaha 1 Ka Lani has stewarded and continues to steward the subject property through
the Hawaii County Open Space and Natural Resources Maintenance Fund Grant award
since 2016. The progress of past grant award projects have been substantial and the
group continues to comply with the terms of its grant award.
The applicant proposes the following objectives which they say will build on and expand
the previous stewardship efforts. Maintain property including native gardens, grass and
fence-line in alignment with Native Revegetation plan. Continued implementation of the
Educational Plan including hosting of educational workdays, facilitating cultural protocol
space, facilitation of community education initiatives and maintenance and installation of
educational signage.
However, I have some concerns over the following budgetary items:
1. Food $ 3,000
2. Honorarium $ 1,800
In my opinion, the Project Budget needs to be revised to be compliant with the Hawaii
County Charter.
This concludes my evaluation of the four PONC stewardship grant applications received by the
Department of Parks and Recreation. Please let me know if there are any questions.

BUSINESS PLAN
1. PROPOSAL (l et plata can be ottoched to a,pplicotion):
'I'lie board members of I-Wornalu, Ka'u and its Kahua Olohu Committee are pleased to submit this PO C;
Stewardship Grant Request application for the stewardship of the Kahua Olohu, as historically famous wahi
pana of Ka'u formerly used as as traditional gaming, field for Hawaiian sports, training grounds for Ina and a
site for religious and cultural ceremonies associated with Makahiki. Although the Kahua Olohu,extends into
the adjacent State owned property, most of the bowling field racetrack can still be found on this 13-acre
County owned parcel, Our board consists of six members, with Ka'u connections, each with various
leadership, educational and managerial backgrounds in businesses and local community organizations,
11o)ard members of Ho'ornalu Ka'u include family members of the Keanu "Ohana who are direct lineal
descendants of the area. In 2014 and 2015, 1-flembers strongly advocated for the purchase of the property
under the County PGI C program. Acquisition of the property in 2016 fulfilled the purpose of preserving
historic and culturally important sites that promote preservation and perpetuation of our native Hawaiian
culture,, tradition and cusumiary practices. In order to build capacity, the board of Ho'ornalu Ka'u formed a
committee specifically dedicated to the stewardship of the Kahua Olohu and the organization of future
community programs an the property. The Kahua Olohu committee consists of five lineal descendants of
Ka'u who are actively involved in public education, natural resource management, and cultural stewardship
proJects. The cormn ittee has drafted its own vision and mission statement for the project:
Kahua Olohu Committee Vision
The Kahua 01ohu shall be a carqfully managed and respected cultural resource which will honor our
ancestors and promote peace, unity, health and connection to the land through rnakar a `caro a, cultural
learning, and resti.n-ation of traditional practices and C0771pelitive sport.
Kahua Ololm Committee Mission
Vhe cornmittee.,; mission is to sul)port and guide a coin in u n ity-managed tvahi pana ofKa,'u based on the
culhiral,sl.)iritual anel educational practices and protocoLs of enure ancestors.
The Kahua Olohu is part of Kaunamano, a significant almpuaa in Ka'u history, the translation.which rneans
"where thousands are settled". 'The narne"KaUnaniano"speaks of the many Hawaiians who once lived on
the land. The fertile hillsides and the abundance offish and other marine:resources along its 4 mile long
coastline supported a thriving community. At the shoreline are the remains of two large villages, Pauku and
Pa'ula. On the hillside above the Kalma Olohu was,a grove of yellow blossomed kou trees where the Ali'i of
Ka'u once held court.
"T"he Kahua Olohu was an integral part of Hawaiian society because of its function during the Makahiki, a
four month lunar holiday in honor of the god, .ono which commenced in the month of lkuwa, at the end of
October. War during those four months was forbidden as this was a time to reflect upon one's relationships
with the kupuna while conditioning one's mind to be at peace, This was a time to be thankful for everything
around you and a time of feasts and festivity including games, of all sorts,particularly boxing. The Makahiki
rituals were the most elaborate and complex in the Hawaiian religion. For farmers, this was as time to pray
for rains to guarantee abundance of food and for the chiefs, this,was as time to collect goods from the people.
The Makahiki games brought together people from all over the island and beyond. At the Kahua Olohu,
skilled competitors displayed strength, courage, and wisdom and their successes brought honor to their
families and chiefs, In addition to accommodating cerern(mies involved with the Makahiki, this specific
property served as a track for bowling games such as ulurnaika and pahee . Although the property is
relatively flat, there is,an elevated outcrop overlooking the track which seems to have served as a natural
amphitheater or viewing area for spectators. On the surrounding properties, there were additional sports
and training areas specifically for warriors and students of hi a, the Hawaiian martial arts.
.As native descendants and cultural practitioners,we plan to work with Kau families and community
members to steward the property so that it can be used again for cultural practices. We hope that this
property can be a I)iko for the community where Hawaiian values and culture can flourish. As a cultural
center, its function,would be to serve as a place of gathering to welcome practitioners, discuss cultural
issues, share kupuna stories and knowledge, strengthen tile community, empower our youth, allow P eople u)
.
find their identity, study genealogies and family relationships, learn Hawaiian language and Kau history,
dress traditionally, growand harvest Hawaiian plants, build inni for cooking, allow traditional style luau
celebrations, and serve as a foundation to kokua other lands in Ka'u.
In order to honor this place and our ancestors appropriately, much of our preliminary work will involve
research and guidance from kupuna to understand what is best for the land. Once the land is prepared and
properly managed, it is our intention to host cultural workshops and groups. Within tile next three years,
our goal is to celebrate Makahiki at the Kabua Olohu. The entire community will be welcome to celebrate,
to learn the stories of our kupuna and to participate in games and events. We believe that this effort will
honor our kupuna while also presenting an amazing opportunity to educate the community and reconnect
through traditional sport. Kaunamano Abuptla'a has a rich history and a vibrant landscape with many
natural and cultural resources. With this initiative to malarna the Kahua Olohu, we,anticipate additional
opportunities to reconnect and to expand our stewardship, education and cultural practices throughout the
(.,thupzja`a.
In closing,we believe that the restoration of the Kahua Olohu stands as a symbol of Ka11 Makaha — Ka'u tile
Fierce,, a term from ancient times defined as "a pride in one's district,people and all, to the exclusion of all
else." There are many organizations in Ka'u today working to protect, preserve and restore our natural and
cultural resources. Each is different in its own way but the common thread which is found in most of these
groups is this deep aloha for Ka'u and a desire to heal the land and the people,.

While our ultimate goal is to prepare the land for traditional cultural uses and practices including activities
associated with M'akahiki,we understand that the land has not been actively managed for many years. With
the assistance of family and community members, our objectives for the calendar year are to clear the 13-
acre property of tall grass and weeds, establish a regular mowing schedule, replace fencing to secure the
property along the highway,, and acquire tools and equipment-for long-term maintenance. Once these
priority tasks are completed, we can begin to create a site plan for cultural uses. The Kahria Olohu
Committee Members will be working as a team to acc(:)mplish the tasks listed below.
Please note that a grant application for calendar year 20.18 was submitted. Resolution 654-18 introduced by
Councilwoman Maile David would,allow for an award of a stewardship grant tinder the PC,NC program but
as of the date of this application, the resolution has not yet been approved by County Council. This

V . APPLICANT INFORMATION
A. Brief history of the applicant organization. Include the date of incorporation, as a non-
profit organization (use attachments, where appropriate):
M)'omalu Ka'u is a tax-exempt nonprofit organiZatioll located in Na'alehu, Ka'u, on Hawaii Island. The
organization was formed on March 02, 2011 with three founding members. I-lo'ornalu's mission is to
perpetuate, protect, and conserve the lands, health, knowledge, cultures, and history of Ka'u and its people.
The board currently consists of seven members with Kau connections, each with various leadership,
educational and managerial backgrounds in businesses and local community organizations.
In 2011, Ho'onialu received a donation of 15 acres in Kahuku containing a pristine dry-land native forest.
The property borders the 25,55o acre, State of Hawaii, Manuka Natural Area Reserve to the west and
includes more than i,000 feet of frontage on Mamalahoa, Highway between Mile Markers 79 and 8o on the
niakai side. This land was given for the purpose of building and operating a heritage center for Ka'u. This
Heritage Center is being planned as a state-of-the-art archival center that will not only house Ka'u farral
photos,, maps, letters, books,papers, collected stories, oral histories, maps, and artifacts, but also serve as ai�i
educational, gathering, and welcome center for Ka'u organizations, families, and visitors with the
remainder of the property to be preserved as part of the dryland forest systern.
In 2014, flo'omalu Ka'u completed a boundary and topographic survey of its Kahuku property. We also
completed a biological survey Of its (22) twenty-two native plant species as well as an archaeological survey
and mapping of Keala'ehu, an ancient trail which traverses through the middle of the property. We co-
hosted cultural workshops as part of the Suninter Fun program. At Volcano,we taught 5ffi an 60,graders
how to video-interview their kupuna. We also participated.in multiple cultural festivals, events and
fundraisers,
In 2015, we. printed and published our booklet entitled, "Native Plants of the Ka'u Dryland Forest," Hawaii's
dr land forests are disappearing at an alarming rate, The purpose of the booklet was to educate the
community about native Hawaiian plants in Ka'u including their environmental value and cultural
significance. As people begin to identify and appreciate our native species,we believe that they will make
stronger efforts to protect and preserve these native plants when developing new house,lots and landscaping
their yards. We held our first"Native Dryland Forest"workshop at Kahuku Park in Ocean View.
In 226, we hosted three additional "Native Dryland Forest"worksbops in Pahala, Ocean View,and
Discovery Harbour. We also raised more than $25,000 to complete the installation of our predator proof
fencing at the makai end of our Kahuku property, connecting with fencing along the Manuka NARS border
to the west,
In 2017, we completed over fifteen"Kupuria of Ka'u"video records of the life histories and stories of local
elders to be archived.at our future Ka'u Heritage Center, We also formed a Kabua Olobu Committee to plan
and prepare for stewardship of the Kahua,Olohti in Kaunamano Ahupua'a, Kau through the submittal of a
County PONC Stewardship Grant Request application. Ho'ornalu Kau was a strong supporter of the
County's Purchase of the property tinder the PONC program. Board members of Ho'ornalu Kau include
family members of the Ke,,,inu 'Ohana who are direct lineal descendants of the area. "I'his new committee
includes a total of five lineal descendants of Ka'u who are currently involved in various corninun ity efforts to
preserve, protect and steward our island's cultural and natural resources.

the natural and cultural 1-CSOLWCeS OftlIC projcct area jr) a manner consistent with
traditional practices that occurred tIlCI-e thT()UghOUt Hawaiian history. Through the
firiplementation of the plans included in the pro1ject description, as welt as firture
developed plans, vve will restore tile freshwater spritig. near-shore marine fishery, loko
i'a, liciau, ahu, salt pairs, I'lora and fillIna, and as many other resources as possible in
order to develop as sustainable geographic area.
The poteritUal lbr the project area, to provide benefits to the community ill tile, tbrill
of sustenance. Spiritual growth, e1jitural immersion, nand recreation will contribute to the
eventual sell'-sufficiericy of the pr(-)Iject,, It is the goal of'NMOK. to, minin-tire: the aced f6r

appropriate manner. Reventle production will appropriatcly Utilize the very saine
resources that 110(trish because ot'NN40K's stewardship. \N/fffle potential econoinic

property has vast potential to benefit the community that cares for it, Fma-uples may
include a weil-stocked arid functiorml fishpond, healthy and vibrarit native dryland and
coastal vegetation Providing a source ol'viable native seeds and niiterials, seedlings to

Aloha kakou,
My middle-school students are very fortunate this year to be able to access and help
restore the natural environment at Kawa through the guidance of N-a-MamP—o-KMrwq, Every
Wednesday, my students in grades 6, 7, and 8 learn how to use conservation strategies, find out
about the rich history and culture of Kawa, and assist in replanting and restoring the wildlife
habitat there.
Many of my students are from Ka'u; this,place-based project engages their attention
and focus. They are proud to learin more about their homeland arid why it is precious and worth
their preservation efforta, We are incorporating the National Standards for Social Studies while
we work at Kawa: they are comparing similarities and differences in the ways groups, societies,
and cultures meet human needs and concerns; and they are examining, interpreting, and
analyzing physical and cultural patterns and their interactions, such as land use, settlement
patterns, cultural transmission of customs and ideas, and ecosystem changes.
My students are also learning how to cultivate responsibility for nature and the
environment;one of:the big goals that our charter school has. All this would not be possible
without the input and assistance from James Akau and Uncle Kaui Felder from NaAaM.Q..0,
KAm. Your continued support of their efforts will enaNe our Students and their farniihes to
ho'omaU,continue the proud and humble lifestyle of the people of Ka'u.

Regarding: Support for PONC Stewardship Grant Application to Na Mamo 0 Kawa,
Kau, "Hawaii
I am writing this letter to formally recommend Na, Marno 0 Kawa to the County of
Hawaii Finance Department Public Access, Open Spaces, and Natural Resource
Preservation Comrnission fund ("PONC." grant) for the purpose of protecting, preserving
and restoring the county's Kawa properties. I believe that their dedication, passion, and
unique understanding of Kau will further the knowledge required tcw engage future
generations in conservation efforts.
As a Teacher at Volcano School of Arts and Sciences I had the privilege of joining Na
Marno, 0 Kawa on recent learning excursions with our students. Members of the non-
profit brought in, and will continue to guide our middle school team to Kawa, to teach the
importance of natural resource restoration. By teaching through hands-on, experience,
our students gain a better understanding of the importance of floral and fauna
interdependence and the need to preserve cultural practices.
By securing this funding, N:a Marino 0 Kawa can broaden their already extensive
professional network to ensure that this powerful natural resource will continue to receive
the attention and maintenance that'will be required to perpetuate all things area Hawaii in
Kau, This will undoubtedly include the ability to rehabilitate, curate, and steward the
cultural and natural resources of Kawa to honor the past, provide for the present, and
preSerVe for the future of our students' generation.

This letter is a testimony to the corninissron in regards to the support of the non-profit organization Na Marno o,
Kawa
My mernories of Kawa begin as a young 12 year old boy. My Mom, Dad, and brother spent a weekend camping
for theannuat"Lokahi 0 Kawa" surf contest. A three-day weekend spent with fhends and family, I remember it
being filled with education, laughter arid fun. Kupuna Would talk about the sacredness of the place at night and
we Would chant, surf, and fish all-day Iong. Mernorres and friendships of this time still resonates through my seff
identify today, nearlyl 6 years later. 1 his experience sparked the beginning of the relationships I have: made
with many of the members of Na Marno o Kawa. Since then and even earlier for many of them, we have
tearned the vallUe of this place and its vast resources it provides for Us
Much tirne has passed sauce those childhood rnernories and those children present themselves to you today as
grown leaders of our community, They are educated, resourceful, and open-minded individuals who, are corning
together fora real purpose that I believe is the start of providing new SOIUtiOrIS for rnany of the sodaVeconornic
challenges we face un our modern world. -1 hear work proves their cor-writment not only through the cultural
restoration of Kawa, but.also through outreach education events with Kameharneha Schools, Youth Challenge
academy, i-Iawail Youth Conservation Corps, University of Hawaii STEM internship, and the Ka'U community.
I believe that the efforts,of Na Marno of Kawa is an example that will extend beyond the district of K@'U,
throughout the Hawaiian Islands, and even around the world. It's about communities taking responsiibility of
their resources and making sure that they remain available for the future generations. T'hey are from the
community and for the corr-imUnity. Rease take these sincere words into consideration today, I know that the
decisions you make wM be for the better of the community as a whole. ..)hank YOU for your consideration on this
issue.

Aloha commission,
I aim writing this letter from my viiewpoJnt as a Cultural practitioner of the area, that depends on
the area to provide me and my family with healthy Hawaiian life and Hawaiian lifestyle, If this
area thrives then myself as a Hawaiian thrives. This area has been my traditional classroom
that taught me how to surf, hunt, fish, chant, collect, and pray. I write this letter in support of Na
Mamo o Kawa to continue stewarding Kawa and working to improve/maintain the quality of
resources found in the area, I consider Kawa a place of high significant cultural and natural
value, without the presence of the host culture it would be hard for the natural and cultural
resources found in tNs area to thrive. For the people of Na Marano o Kawa to be Hawaiians from
this area and understand the natural and cultural processes that occur here, 1, believe it Would
be beneficial to continue alloWinig Na Marno o Kawa to continue working in synergy with
relationship to the cultural and natural environmental aspects of this area. Please allow these
children of Kawa, who grew up usung, managing, policing, and monftoring the resources in their
traditional ways, that went away to becorne educated in the sciences and policies of the
government, return to their one hanaU WO the kUleana to perpetuate the Hawaiian culture and

BUSINESS PLAN
1. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,..,,... (detailed plan can e attached to application):
The Kohanaiki `Ghana is seeking grant funds to c017tinue our stewardship pro-
rams and to step up our efforts to care for `O'oma. We are proposing to contin-
ue to contract with Mason Myruruo as a Project Cooudiuiator. The POMC Mainte
nance f=unds will enable LIS to carry out the recommendations listed in the Octo-
ber 2014 Flora and Fauna .Survey conducted by Geoirnuetrician Associates, LLC.
`O'oma is especially abundant in two special status plants, Maiapilo (caperis
sandwichiana), and fibristylis hawaiienisis, a small sedge, `Coma's Maiapilo, a
rare noedicinal plant, is relatively abundant. l hese plant strands harbor several
special status species of rare Hawaiian yellow-faced hylaeus bees. 'O'onia is
also frequented by several rare birds, including A'eo, the Hawaiian stilt.
Most of 'O'cima's unique coastal ecosystem lay unbeknown by its visitors. by
educating and engaging with the community and schools„ we can continue to
protect and malarna 'O'oma for future generations.
`working with Mason to Malarna `O'oma will enable us to expand on past of
forts conducting coMmu,unity and school educational and work- days, as well as
begin to implement management recommendations from the Flora and Fauna
Study.
The emphasis of this grant request is on shoreline preservation, education
and regularly scheduled work-days and beach clean-ups with several local
schools. Students will focus on native plant identification, hylaeus bee Monitor-
Ing and native bird witching. Students will learn the importance of re-planting
native species and protection of the strand vegetation.
'The Kohanaiki 'Ghana will work to maintain a healthy, safe, and clean envi-
ronment, and re-establish native host plants that support endernic hylaeu.s bee
habitat as well as native birds, and V-tawaiian Hoary bats. Additionally, we will
be planting Loulfl Palms and other native trees allong the mauka crest of the
beach for storm and high surf erosion control.
The flora and fauna will be monitored throughout the year. The proposal is
consistent with the recomi-nended management measures for 'O'oma listed in
the 201..4 Flora and Fauna Study conducted by Geometrician Associates LLC,

KO `OHANA

December 23, 1999,which changed the corporate name from"Protect Kohanaiki Ohana"to
"Kohanaiki Ohana",this First Amendment shall be referred to as"First Amendment to Bylaws of
Kohanaiki Ohana".
The Board of Directors have elected to amend the Bylaws of Protect Kohanaiki
Ohana, a Hawaii Non-Profit Corporation, dated February 20, 1991,by adding clauses entitled
"Conflict of Interest" and"Nepotism" for the purpose of complying with eligibility requirements for
non-profit grant processes, which sections shall read as follows:
CONFLICT OF INTEREST. No action taken by a Director or Board Member will
result in measurable direct benefit to him or herself. When a Director or Officer has a financial or
personal interest or a potential appearance or conflict of interest in any matter coming before the
Board of Directors, that Director or Officer shall:
A. Fully disclose the nature of the potential interest; and
B. Withdraw from discussion, lobbying, and voting on the matter. Any transaction or vote
involving a potential conflict of interest shall be approved only when a majority of
disinterested Directors determine that it is in the best interest of the Corporation to do
so. The minutes of meetings at which such votes are taken shall record such disclosure,
abstention and rational for approval.
NEPOTISM. There will be no appointment of persons to positions on the basis of
their blood or marital relationship to the appointing authority, rather than on merit or ability. If a
family member of a Board Member is interested in a position that person should apply through
standard channels.
No immediate family member of a current staff member will be considered for a position
wherein one member would have supervisory duties over the other.
