The Urban Land Protection Forum 4 builds on three forums held in Lowell (2004), Boston (2006) and Lawrence (2007). This year’s event will bring together practitioners from the public and private sectors to share success stories, develop strategies, partnerships, and address the following topics:

· How do you justify your projects to funders? What are the measurables?

· EOEEA Grant Programs – if you’re not participating, now’s the chance to ask questions!

· Stewardship – What are the benchmarks?

· Brownfields – What are the obstacles?Keynote Speaker: City of Fitchburg Mayor Lisa Wong
