Our Mission

The Douglass Community Land Trust plants the roots of affordability, security, and prosperity for current and future generations. We enable the inclusive and equitable development and preservation of permanently affordable housing, local small business, and other public assets through community ownership of land, today.

Our Board of Directors

Our board reflects that of a traditional community land trust with a tri-partite board consisting of 1) resident representatives, 2) general community representatives, and 3) public representatives. Control of the CLT’s board is balanced to ensure that the community as a whole considers and determines the priorities of the organization and all interests are heard but no interest is predominant.
