The Commission developed its prioritized ranking order based upon reported urgency, anticipated use, significance and benefit to the public and special opportunities available for acquisition and management. See Appendix 1 for detailed descriptions and maps of these prioritized properties. Status of Properties on Past Prioritized Lists and Acquisitions Past prioritized lists were compiled in the Status of Properties on Past Prioritized Lists from 2006-2012 (see Appendix 4). The Commission recommends that properties from previous prioritized lists continue to be pursued as far as possible unless: the County has already acquired the property; the property no longer meets the criteria for inclusion (see Appendix 9); there are insufficient funds available for acquisition; or the County Council has not passed a resolution that would allow the property to be acquired. In addition it may be of interest to note that Kaiholena (Lot F), which was prioritized by the PONC in 2007 and 2009 and resoluted for purchase by the County Council in 2008, was purchased without County funds through an effort led by the Kohala community in partnership with a community based non-profit. The community noted that even though PONC funds were not used, having the parcel ranked and resoluted assisted with securing other funding. Page 2
