Brownfield Workshop - Clarksdale, MS - February 26, 2015

Join CCLR for an amazing opportunity to learn from the experts on how to manage brownfield redevelopment projects. This workshop is designed for redevelopment practitioners in Mississippi and Arkansas, from local governments, nonprofits, and the private sector with an interest in learning the nuts-and-bolts of redeveloping environmentally challenged property. Recycling abandoned and under-utilized properties in the Delta Region requires special knowledge and skills to manage contaminant issues. This practical and interactive workshop will provide project managers with the tools, techniques, and funding resources required to bring projects in on-time and on-budget.

Seasoned brownfield redevelopment practitioners will be on-hand to discuss funding sources and give you the advice you need to move your project forward. The workshop will be held at the offices of the Delta Regional Authority. Presenters from across Mississippi and Arkansas will discuss a number of successful brownfield redevelopment projects, and all attendees will have a unique opportunity to get an inside perspective on the projects. Other case studies will highlight a range of brownfield reuse opportunities applicable to both rural and urban communities in the Delta.
