Comment on a Land Trust

Recognizing the need for public accountability

Your voice is welcomed

The Commission encourages the communities and partners of current applicants or accredited land trusts to submit comments.

The principles that guide the Commission's public comment process:

  • Only written comments are accepted.

  • The link above can be used to submit comments or, via mail, to 36 Phila Street, Suite 2, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866 or email to info@landtrustaccreditation.org

  • All comments must be attributed. If the comment is shared with the land trust, the name of the commenter is kept confidential.

  • Comments must relate to the land trust’s implementation of the Standards and accreditation requirements. The Commission does not intervene in internal disputes within accredited land trusts, disputes between land trusts, and disputes between land trusts and other individuals or agencies.
