Part X	Part X : FIN48 Footnote	Income TaxesFinancial statement presentation follows the recommendations of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, the Land Trust is required to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by the Land Trust and requires a two-step process that separates recognition from measurement. The first step is determining whether a tax position has met the recognition threshold; the second step is measuring a tax position that meets the recognition threshold. Management believes that the Land Trust has adequately evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of June 30, 2013 the Land Trust does not have any uncertain tax positions for which a reserve or an accrual for a tax liability would be necessary.The Land Trust has received notification from the Internal Revenue Service and the State of California that it qualifies for tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 23701d of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. This exemption is subject to periodic review by the federal and state taxing authorities and management is confident that the Land Trust continues to satisfy all federal and state statutes in order to qualify for continued tax exemption status. The Land Trust may periodically receive unrelated business income (such as sublease rental income and advertising revenue) requiring the Land Trust to file separate tax returns under federal and state statutes. Under such conditions, the Land Trust calculates and accrues the applicable taxes payable.
Part V, Line 4	Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.	Endowment funds, classified as permanently restricted net assets, represent cash contributions that are subject to restrictions of gift instruments requiring that the principal be invested in perpetuity. Interest Earnings from investments are restricted to payment of expenses for a land Easement. To the extent that there are any excess earnings (including realized and unrealized gains) beyond any restrictions, such amounts may be used for general operating purposes and then annually transferred to unrestricted net assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board in its Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 958.320.
