>> National Vacant Properties Campaign Launches
LISC, working in partnership with Smart Growth America (SGA) and the International City/County Management Association (ICMA), launched the National Vacant Properties Campaign at a day-long forum on July 9 in Washington, DC. The Campaign, which has received seed funding from the Fannie Mae Foundation and the US Environmental Protection Agency, has the primary goals of making vacant property reclamation a national priority and giving communities the tools they need to effectively address the issue. More than 75 people attended the kick-off forum, including community development practitioners, environmentalists, policymakers, local and federal government officials, funders, researchers, and business people.
