New London explores land bank ideas
Housing was the central topic among officials at a recent statewide conference on land banking, New London Village Administrator Shawn Pickworth reports.
In his recent written report to Village Council, Pickworth stated he attended the Ohio Land Bank Association Conference, where he “learned a lot about what other communities are doing and what we could be doing as a Land Bank.”
He wrote that housing “was probably the top point being talked about by everyone around the state.”
While the report did not outline specific proposals, Pickworth wrote that he left the conference with “lots of ideas” for possible improvements to local land bank efforts.
His observations were submitted to council members as part of the April 28 meeting materials.
