Tools for Conservation
Depending upon on the conservation values of the land, the goals
of the landowner, and the ability for Connemara to get involved,
different conservation tools are ideal in different circumstances.
For conservation-minded landowners, our protection strategies
are both practical and essential to preserving the land. For landowners
who share the goals of the land trust, the options described here
may provide a means to achieve a personal dream: That of forever
protecting an important part of the landscape and perhaps part
of your family's heritage as stewards of that cherished landscape. For those seeking a tax deduction for donating the development rights of the land, some tools are better than others to achieve that end.
Discuss your options with trusted professionals, particularly
your tax advisor and a conservation professional. Your tax advisor
can counsel you on any recent changes in property, income, and
estate tax laws that may substantially impact your decision. Connemara
is here to help you get started.
