Bricker & Eckler attorneys Jeff Harris and Ty Compton, and Cuyahoga Land Bank President and General Counsel, Gus Frangos, will present a webinar, Thursday, November 19, 1:00-2:30 p.m. EST. Designed to inform developers how to drive stabilization, revitalization and economic growth in communities, this webinar will feature best practices for land bank programs.
Land banks are proven tools to remove blighted structures and acquire problem properties in post-industrial legacy cities and neighborhoods across the U.S. The process of land banking – whereby quasi-governmental entities acquire and manage properties that are tax delinquent and unoccupied, striving to return them to the open market – is getting a closer look as a possible response to the COVID-19 public health emergency. This presentation will review the national land bank movement and undertake a critical assessment of the Ohio land banking model.
