th pre-contact, some are 19 century. There are religious structures, there is a portion of the Judd Trail, there are habitation sites and all sorts of stuff buried in the ground. As mentioned, the entire length of this property fronting Ali`i Drive, paralleling Ali`i Drive, will be preserved. Preserved, the definition of it I guess is, it’s an in perpetuity covenant that is affixed to the deed of this property. So it means that some day Towne Development or the individual landowners may sell, people may come and go, but that preservation area is going to remain the same. The deed is going to be tagged. So even if it changes hands, that place is locked in a state to which it’s in now and as it has been built up probably over 300-400 years. So if every single development had this much preservation, the archaeological community and I think the Hawaiian community would be very happy. This one has got it and I’m happy to see it. I’d also would like to weigh in a little bit about that portion of the Judd Trail that is on the subject property, not all of the Judd Trail is now. It’s only those walls; and then it veers off to the south. And there’s an easement that has been set aside to accommodate the majority of the Judd Trail which is off the subject property. But the portion that is in is the very beginnings of the old Judd Road or the Judd Trail; and that section, I’m happy to say is going to be preserved in perpetuity in two different ways. One, fortunately for people who are interested in trails and historic sites, the entire portion of the trail that is on Mr. Lau’s property falls into the archaeological preservation zone, so that tags it for that preservation and perpetuity status. Also, it’s also, fortunately, within the setback area, the no-build setback area, so it really enjoys a very favorite spot. The Judd Trail is a very important thing, not only to Na Ala Hele but members of the community, members of the archaeological community; and the part, the beginning of it, the very beginning of it that is on this property is very nicely preserved. So, I hope that that’s a plain English, thumb-nail sketch of the archaeological situation there. SALAVEA:Yes, thank you. KENNEDY:You’re welcome. SALAVEA:My follow-up question for Mr. Lau, how is the Preservation Plan implemented into the future? Is it, I’m thinking that there is some type of cost associated with maintaining the preservation area, be it landscaping or, you know, just insuring that nothing encroaches into this area. How is the cost going to be carried for that part of the Preservation Plan? LAU:Well, first of all, the Preservation Plan is a plan that has been submitted by Mr. Kennedy to the State, and I’ll have him address that portion. But with respect to any ongoing obligations, there would be obligations of the owners of the development. EXHIBIT A 11
