SH Partner to Speak at "Accelerate Land Reuse for Community Revitalization" Workshop

Scarinci Hollenbeck Partner, John M. Scagnelli, to Speak at “Accelerate Land Reuse for Community Revitalization” Workshop

On Tuesday, October 9, Partner and Chair of Scarinci Hollenbeck’s Environmental & Land Use group, John M. Scagnelli, will be speaking at a workshop entitled, “Accelerate Land Reuse for Community Revitalization”. The workshop, hosted by the Center for Creative Land Recycling (CCLR), will feature two panels, the first of which Mr. Scagnelli will be speaking on. During the Lighting Rounds: Ask the Experts panel, Mr. Scagenlli, alongside several public and private-sector redevelopment experts, will discuss pathways for successful redevelopment and answer questions on relevant topics. Some of these topics include legal liability for property acquisition, brownfield regulatory, planning and cleanup strategies, stakeholder engagement, working with developers and more.

According to the CCLR site, the “Accelerate Land Reuse for Community Revitalization” workshop will offer a “unique opportunity to hear from and meet individually with dozens of public and private-sector redevelopment experts.” The CCLR states that the workshop “will provide answers to your questions on legal liability, regulatory issues, funding resources, assessment/remediation, and community engagement to turbocharge your redevelopment efforts.”
