The "cultural trust" system which has existed in England for years can be used as a model. The owner of the property donates it to the government for a symbolic one dollar. A private committee or foundation is then entrusted with the property's management. The property's financial affairs remain public, and any profit made is reinvested in the property.
夏鑄九認為產權的問題其實好解決，可以仿照英國行之經年的文化信託制度，讓產權人以象徵性的一塊錢代價捐出，讓民間的管理委員會或基金會管理，並讓它財務公開，利潤回饋，使這麼一個古蹟級的茶館仍然開放民眾喝茶聊天，讓它仍然是一個活的都市空間。
