Facilitate Conservation Easements
A conservation easement a common way for private landowners to ensure all or a portion of their land is protected forever. It is a binding legal agreement that creates obligations for a landowner and for the partner land trust holding the easement to ensure the protection of “conservation values” of a property—things that are so important ecologically, that everyone agrees to protect them in perpetuity. A conservation easement attaches to the deed of a property, meaning it survives transfers of ownership, making easements a powerful tool for protecting land.
