CAPITAL REGION LAND CONSERVANCY INC
EIN: 20-2797635
BASED: Richmond, VA, United States
CHARITY WEBSITE: www.capitalregionland.org
Our mission is to conserve and protect the natural and historic land and water resources of Virginia’s Capital Region for the benefit of current and future generations. CRLC serves the City of Richmond and the Counties of Chesterfield, Henrico, Hanover, Goochland, Powhatan, New Kent, and Charles City. CRLC was incorporated in Virginia as a non-profit corporation in March 2005 to serve as the only regionally-focused land conservancy in the Greater Richmond area.
CRLC carries out its mission by educating landowners and communities about land protection through the use of voluntary conservation easements, by assisting landowners in the establishment of conservation easements, and by acting as a co-holder of conservation easements. A conservation easement is a legal agreement between a landowner and a land trust or government agency that permanently prohibits specified uses of the land in order to protect its conservation values. A property owner foregoes certain land development options in exchange for (1) the legacy of permanently protecting the land in its natural state and (2) state and federal tax incentives associated with the charitable donation of an easement. Ownership is not affected and the owner can sell the property or will it to heirs.
