Community Benefit Agreements

Lorman Education Services
Training Provided by Lorman Education Services nCommunity benefits agreements can increase public participation in the planning process, promote smart growth and environmental justice goals, and bring neighborhoods, local governments, and private interests together to make development projects more sustainable, transparent and accountable. Negotiating a CBA can be a win-win solution for community groups and developers. The community receives assurances about job benefits, affordable housing, environmental impacts and other issues related to the development and to the community's needs. The project developer, in return, gets community support for permit approvals and subsidies, as well as a release of claims. This teleconference will help you understand what CBAs are and how they can help you. It will discuss the process of negotiating CBAs, legal issues relating to CBAs, and techniques for implementing and monitoring CBAs.
