Oct. 26: Free Webinar Explores Advantages of Creating Development Agreements

With the development process becoming increasingly complex, lengthy, costly and uncertain — and with approvals taking as long as four to seven years in some communities — NAHB's Land Development Committee will present a free webinar on development agreements and how they can provide greater certainty for private developers and the public sector on how projects and the infrastructure needed to serve them are built and funded.

The webinar will be held beginning at 2:00 p.m. EDT on Tuesday, Oct. 26.

A panel of national experts will explain their legal framework, how to restructure agreements in projects that are changing hands during the downturn and how development agreements can support the use of innovative infrastructure approaches that require public and private sector collaboration.
