SUMMARY:COMMUNITY LAND TRUST WORKSHOP: Towards Housing Affordability & Ecological Sustainability
DESCRIPTION:A Community Land Trust (CLT) is a blended land ownership model. It secures socio-economic and environmental goals through non-profit ownership of the land and leasing it back to private owners or organizations focused on community benefit. Affordability and other goals are built into the lease creating a powerful and balanced means of blending private and community benefits. \nThis unique land tenure model has proven itself to actually increase housing affordability over time\, both for rentals and owner occupied housing. This workshop will elevate these applications as a priority. In addition\, CLTs have several other applications. Two will be touched on in this workshop – how it can be used to facilitate the transfer of land to a new generation of ecologically conscious young farmers or foresters\, and the provision of affordable workspaces. \nSound interesting and relevant? We hope so. Come and spend 5 hours engaging with Michael Lewis\, who is one of the most knowledgeable speakers in Canada on CLT’s. \nMike Lewis is well known in Canada and internationally as a practitioner\, author\, educator\, and leader in the field of CED and the social economy. His experience cuts across the full range of functions connected to community renewal and development. He has built and advised a wide range of businesses\, organizations\, and governments all over Canada and internationally as well. An innovator\, activist\, and thinker with a penchant for linking practice with policy and the micro and macro\, Mike’s leadership in CCCR (communityrenewal.ca) and elsewhere continues to help us connect the dots and stay ahead of the curve. \nDate and Time: Wednesday\, July 15\, 3:30pm to 8:30pm \nCost: $ 55.00. Dinner and refreshments are included. \nLocation: Rath Eastlink Community Centre\, 625 Abenaki Road\, Truro\, Nova Scotia. \nThe RECC is clearly visible from the Veteran Memorial Highway #102 as you drive through Truro\, Nova Scotia. Take exit 13\, head towards the town\, and gain access to the RECC parking just off of Abenaki Road.  \nTo register: linda@novascotia.coop Pre-registration essential. \nFor more information:  transitionbay.ca .  Event co-sponsored by Transition Bay St Margarets and by Nova Scotia Co-operative Council. \nParticipants will be offered a comprehensive information package downloadable to your USB Flash Drive. This workshop will be a solid foundation on a proven way to make affordable and protect land for housing\, farming\, workplaces\, and conservation. Please don’t miss this opportunity. \nAsk for our email flier to share with your contacts and organizations.
