SMA APPLICATION ANCHORED BY FUTURE LAND GIFT TO LOCAL NON-PROFIT & NEW INVESTMENT IN SOUTH MAUI COMMUNITY PROGRAMMING
Ledcor Maui has submitted an SMA application for three new residential communities on a portion of the remaining infill parcels in Wailea that places community, cultural stewardship, and sustainability at its center.
The application includes a total of 273 multifamily units, four of which will be employee housing units and 36 workforce housing units deed restricted in perpetuity within the resort. A central aspect of the project plans is a land gift to a Maui-based nonprofit partner whose mission is grounded in caring for place, perpetuating Native Hawaiian cultural practices, and serving South Maui families.
The SMA application reflects extensive community engagement, cultural consultation, and environmental review undertaken over four years. From the outset, the project team committed to listening first — sitting down with kūpuna, lineal descendants, cultural practitioners, neighborhood leaders, and South Maui families to understand what a meaningful, lasting community legacy should look like. This community engagement has resulted in helping to establish a non-profit named Paeahu by lineal descendants and cultural practitioners and through partnership with ‘Āina Momona. Visit Paeahu.org

The nonprofit Paeahu would hold and manage the gifted parcel, leading cultural education, place-based learning for keiki and ʻōpio, environmental stewardship, traditional resource management, and gathering spaces for community practice and ceremony. To help ensure the long-term success of the non-profit, the Ledcor team will require the market housing projects to make financial contributions to the non-profit; a requirement that will be legally provided and enforceable through the projects’ covenants and restrictions. Ledcor Maui intends to transfer roughly 2.5 acres of open space to Paeahu to provide the non-profit with a home for their programming and stewardship efforts.
Other commitments include water conservation measures, landscaping with drought-tolerant and a majority native and canoe plants, on site removal of invasive species and gulch restoration, sustainable design for all residential buildings targeting USGBC LEED Silver certification, Sustainable SITES certification for the landscape and outdoor spaces, and incorporating low impact design (LID) applications.
