Feb 24 | ANC 8A + ANC 8C Meeting to discuss proposed Community Benefits Agreement with Redbrick LMD
February 24, 2022
6:30 pm, Virtual Meeting
What is a Community Benefits Agreement?
A Community Benefits Agreement or "CBA" is a contract signed by community groups and a real estate developer that requires the developer to provide specific amenities and/or mitigations to the local community or neighborhood. Site-specific community benefits agreements (CBAs) ensure that particular projects create opportunities for local workers and communities. Often, however, these projects change the city's development paradigm; when decision-makers realize what well-considered projects with specific benefits attached can bring to the community, the city enacts community benefits policies that set the stage for lifting thousands of people out of poverty.
