Local Proposal Keeps Legacy Owners in their Homes.

What’s happening? Gentrification is happening or Redevelopment is happening. However you phrase it long time, legacy homeowners, can find their property taxes a burden as their property values soar.

Why is this important? Atlanta’s Mayor issued an Administrative Order for the Anti-Displacement Program  that creates a $10M grant program to keep legacy home owners in their neighborhoods.

How will this be important? Atlanta’s program also includes a private donation fund, nonprofit Westside Future Fund . Detroit is also working to keep homeowners in their neighborhoods through a private donation nonprofit.
