CLA Presents: Learning Land Use – How You Can Influence Local Development!

October 6, 2022

Curious how you can influence development in your community? Join CLA’s Russ Stevenson in this virtual webinar to learn how to get involved in local land use decisions! Participants will explore land use basics, including the steps developers must follow to subdivide property, build structures, and seek waivers or exceptions to planning and zoning laws. You’ll also learn when and how to participate, and the legal tools available to influence local development.
