Development by Agreement: A Tool Kit for Land Developers and Local Governments

Land owners and local governments use formal agreements to maximize mutual interests in and benefits from certain types of land use. Development by Agreement begins with an overview of problems that can be solved by agreements related to development, annexation, conservation, and a host of other land uses. The authors then provide several extensive chapters on negotiating and drafting these agreements and conclude with a comprehensive set of sample agreements and checklists that are also included on a convenient CD-ROM.
