my right is Jim Moore from the firm of ArchaeologicalConsultants of the Pacific. He€s a senior <br />supervisor with that firm. He has been intimately involved in the archaeological work as well as <br />the cultural assessment that was prepared for this property; and he€s here as am I to answer any <br />questions the Commission may have. <br />ALAMEDA:Thank you. I noticed you€ve done all the work to meet some of our <br />requests, appreciate that. Fellow Commissioners, do you have any questions for the Applicants? <br />Commissioner Graham? <br />GRAHAM:First, I want to confess to a big mistake on my part in that I didn€t realize <br />you folks were on the agenda for today so I got the information you sent and I got it filed and I <br />haven€t gone over through this as I should. But I very much remember our last meeting and <br />what went on there and what my concerns were and Commissioner Springer€s concerns and all. <br />I was certainly hoping for a lot more as far as the Judd Trail and the public access issue than <br />whatIjustseewrittenonthisthingherethatyouwill,infact,identifyandallowaccessover <br />whatever portion of the Judd Trail is on your property. Can you fill me in a little more? Is what <br />I read here, is that it? That€s ƒ? <br />LAU:Well, certainly. What you see on the yellow sheet would be a condition <br />that we would agree to with respect to the Judd Trail. In the cultural impact assessment, the firm <br />that prepared it interviewed knowledgeable people and also did some research with the State. <br />Perhaps Mr. Moore could address what they did with respect to the Judd Trail and their <br />recommendations with it. <br />ALAMEDA:Mr. Moore? <br />MOORE:We consulted with Na Ala Hele as well as five members of the <br />community; and we did determine that the Trail is owned in its entirety by the State. The TMK <br />Map shows that there€s a 10-foot easement on the south side of Parcel 58 that runs the entire <br />length of Parcel 58. The property itself is combined Parcels 57 and 58, 58 being the southern <br />parcel. So there€s a 10-foot easement that runs along that that is owned by the State. <br />Now, the Trail itself, the State does not follow the easement exactly. It is partially within the <br />subject property based on a detailed mapping we did in association with the preservation plan. <br />Most of the Trail had been impacted by bulldozing as early as 1980. And currently only about <br />35 meters at the makai end of the property is still present, and that is in a relatively deteriorated <br />condition. So the northern wall of the two parallel walls that bound the Trail itself is also a part <br />of Site 8028, which is recommended for preservation, and the buffer zone for that site extends <br />over the edge of the Judd Trail itself. <br />ALAMEDA:Commissioner Graham? <br />GRAHAM:Unfortunately, I don€t know this situation on the ground there and I <br />appreciate your speaking to that. My hope that I expressed at the last meeting was that even <br />though the Judd Trail had, in my view, suffered a lot over, you know, prior years and prior <br />decisions and all that, you know, is it feasible that somehow the Judd Trail can be brought back <br />to usable, a usable situation to where it€s an asset to the people in this public ownership.
