The Customized State Smart Growth Legislation Program provides assistance to state REALTOR® associations that wish to take the lead in writing and introducing legislation to help the state better address the challenges of growth and improve local communities. NAR will offer, at a reduced rate to the state association, the services of respected land use law firm, Robinson & Cole, to draft state legislation on Smart Growth issues. (Examples might include new zoning enabling legislation, requirements for local planning, changes in subdivision law, or open space protection.) These proposals must be related to land use and smart growth, and should involve issues that can gain support from a constituency beyond REALTORS®. If your association is ready to become a leader in finding solutions to growth concerns, give NAR’s Smart Growth staff a call to discuss the possibilities.
