1 2004 VERSION OF STANDARD 12 The land trust has a program of responsible stewardship for the land it holds in fee for conservation purposes. A. Funding Land Stewardship. The land trust determines the immediate and long-term financial and management implications of each land transaction and secures the dedicated and/or operating funds needed to manage the property, including funds for liability insurance, maintenance, improvements, monitoring, enforcement and other costs. If funds are not secured at or before the completion of the transaction, the land trust has a plan to secure these funds and has a policy committing the funds to this purpose. (See 6G.) B. Stewardship Principles. The land trust establishes general principles to guide the stewardship of its feeowned properties, including determining what uses are and are not appropriate on its properties, the types of improvements it might make and any land management practices it will follow. C. Land Management. The land trust inventories the natural and cultural features of each property prior to developing a management plan that identifies its conservation goals for the property and how it plans to achieve them. Permitted activities are compatible with the conservation goals, stewardship principles and public benefit mission of the organization. Permitted activities occur only when the activity poses no significant threat to the important conservation values, reduces threats or restores ecological processes, and/or advances learning and demonstration opportunities. D. Monitoring Land Trust Properties. The land trust marks its boundaries and regularly monitors its properties for potential management problems (such as trespass, misuse or overuse, vandalism or safety hazards) and takes action to rectify such problems. E. Land Stewardship Administration. The land trust performs administrative duties in a timely and responsible manner. This includes establishing policies and procedures, keeping essential records, filing forms, paying insurance, paying any taxes and/or securing appropriate tax exemptions, budgeting, and maintaining files. F. Community Outreach. The land trust keeps neighbors and community leaders informed about its ownership and management of conservation properties. G. Contingency Backup. The land trust has a contingency plan for all of its conservation land in the event the land trust ceases to exist or can no longer manage the property. To ensure that a contingency holder will accept the land, the land trust has complete and accurate files and stewardship funds available for transfer. H. Nonpermanent Holdings. When a land trust holds fee land with the intention to sell or transfer the land, the land trust is open about its plans with the public and manages and maintains the property in a manner that retains the land trust s public credibility. (See 8L.) I. Condemnation. The land trust is aware of the potential for condemnation, understands its rights and obligations under condemnation, and works diligently to prevent a net loss in conservation values.
