This workshop will cover the problems and solutions that towns and local 
land trusts face when a developer is setting aside open space pursuant 
to Planning Board or ZBA mandates.  Presenters will discuss the 
necessary steps to ensure protection, pitfalls to be avoided, and 
long-term stewardship issues.  We will also explore the range of bylaws 
that Massachusetts towns have implemented to encourage open space 
developments.
