Community Benefits Agreement. An Important Tool in the Growing Twin Cities Equity Movement by Xxxxx Xxxxx, Alliance for Metropolitan Stability I n May of 2001, a broad coalition of community allies in Los Angeles won a major campaign to tie an array of community benefits to the development of a publicly subsidized sports and entertainment complex adjacent to the Staples Center basketball arena. The project is now renowned within equitable development circles, not only because of its significant outcomes for local low-income residents, but because it was the first example of a broad community coalition entering into a legal contract with a private developer to ensure the delivery of specific community benefits. THE “STAPLES CBA” BROUGHT A NEW TOOL TO PEOPLE concerned about how to hold developers accountable to their promises of new jobs, living wages, affordable housing and other benefits for the community. CBA stands for community benefits agreement: a legally enforceable contract, signed by community groups and by a developer, in which the developer agrees to specific outcomes defined by the impacted commu- B A nity. In turn, the community groups agree to publicly support the development. Often implemented in instances where a project receives public subsidies, the premise inherent in the CBA concept is that public investments should have an equitable impact on the lives of local people. Cognizant of the historical failures of many policies to deliver the results promised to communities, CBAs go the further step of affording those affected an ongoing mechanism through which to produce, monitor and enforce beneficial outcomes. Benefits often detailed in CBAs include minority contracting, living-wage requirements, first-source hiring preferences, land banking and affordable housing set-asides, transit integration, and green building techniques. s C t n e m o e e r g A m m s u t i n f i t y e Ben A C B Ultimately, CBAs are based B C Graphic: Xxxxx Xxxxxx A Community benefits Agreements on the premise that the particular needs of a community should inform the ways in which development there takes place. CBAS ARE NOT A NEW IDEA — THEY BUILD OFF THE HISTORIC STRENGTHS OF GOOD NEIGHBOR AGREE- MENTS. But there are still relatively few examples of fully implemented CBAs throughout the country, and even fewer in Minnesota.

Community Benefits Agreement. The CBA in the USA is a contract signed by community groups and a real estate developer that requires the developer to provide specific amenities and/or mitigations to the local community or neighborhood. In exchange, the community groups agree to publicly support the project, or at least not oppose it. Often, negotiating a CBA relies heavily upon the formation of a multi-issue, broad based community coalition including community, environmental, faith-based and labor organizations. Other Cities with CBAs The following cities have joined the CBA movement: Atlanta, Denver, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, New Haven, New York City, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, San Diego, San Francisco, San Xxxx, Seattle, Syracuse, Washington, D.C., and Wilmington. Win- Win Good for Developers- For developers, negotiating with community representatives can be an attractive way to gain community support and help move their projects forward. Participating in CBA negotiations can eliminate surprises in the development approvals process and allow developers to work with a unified coalition rather than having to engage community organizations one by one.
