OHIO LAND BANK PLAYBOOK

Are you new to land banking? Are you looking to brush up on land banking? Check out the Ohio Land Bank Playbook. Created by Gus Frangos, in partnership with Western Reserve Land Conservancy, the Playbook broadly deals with two categories related to Land Reutilization Corporations under Chapter 1724 of the Ohio Revised Code:

​1.) activities of various public agencies (and the interaction between them) that touch upon land banking, land transactions and real estate taxes;

2.) the set-up, operation and practice of land banking under the enablements established by S.B. 353, 127th Ohio General Assembly
