Recorded Presentations from the Polycom Videoconference:
Greenbelt Update - Conservation Assessments

Recorded on December 14, 2010; broadcast live via Polycom from the University of Florida Campus in Gainesville to UF-IFAS Extension facilities across Florida

Florida Statutes now provide property tax exemption for real property dedicated in perpetuity for conservation, as well as a current use tax assessment of land used for conservation. See this presentation and discussion forum for an update on these provisions. 

Questions about this and other Forest Stewardship Program activities can be directed to Chris Demers, (352) 846-2375, cdemers@ufl.edu
