Title

Community Land Trust Discussion (B)

Explanation

At the September 15 Joint GCRAAB/CCOMM Meeting, the Board requested that GCRA Staff invite an expert to come to a future meeting to present information on Community Land Trusts and answer questions. The week after the joint meeting, GCRA staff shared with the board information regarding an upcoming webinar on Community Land Trusts organized by the Florida League of Cities. Several staffers were able to attend and found the webinar informative. GCRA Staff then contacted the organizer for a recommendation on an expert who would be willing to speak with the board at an upcoming meeting. Jason Webb, Senior Specialist, Community & Capacity Building at Grounded Solutions Network, will be giving a presentation on Community Land Trusts and will be available to answer questions.
