November, 2008
The Urban Development Institute – Greater Edmonton Chapter (link to http://udiedmonton.com/news.html) holds monthly educational luncheons for its members. Recently, its Executive Director Michael Mooney invited Pam Wight to their event to provide information on the Land Trust, answer questions, and network with members.

Besides EALT information, Pam was happy to inform attendees that the Land Trust is already working with a developer, United, on an innovative stormwater drainage system near Big Lake, designed to reduce runoff volumes and nutrient loading of the lake (link to http://www.ealt.ca/news/2008/nov/03/ealt-partnership-one-8-applications-selected-city-/ )

This introduced the principal purpose of the presentation – demonstrating that developers can work with the Land Trust, which is very much focussed on collaborations for various types of objectives. EALT can be a flexible tool for: individual citizens, developers, their clients, corporations or municipalities. Pam invited all regional developers and associated industry to consider how to work with the Land Trust, collaborating to meet mutual goals, and to build better, smarter communities.
