COMMUNITY BENEFITS AGREEMENTSCommunity Benefits Agreement • February 17th, 2020
Community benefits agreements are a mechanism for communities to extract concessions from private developers who are planning to build large-scale, impact-heavy projects. Community ben- efits agreements are a way to intervene in the development process by negotiating directly with developers. The purpose is to share in the economic wealth these projects generate and mitigate negative neighborhood impacts. These agreements have the potential to democratize access to the inner-workings of high profile development projects while building community organizing capacity based on a particular, tangible target.
