Mission
THE WATERBURY LAND BANK AUTHORITY ("WLB") WORKS TO ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR WATERBURY RESIDENTS. WE DO THIS BY REPURPOSING VACANT LOTS AND STRUCTURES INTO NEW COMMUNITY ASSETS. WE WORK CLOSELY WITH THE CITY OF WATERBURY, OTHER COMMUNITY NONPROFITS, AND LOCAL BUSINESSES TO CATALYZE NEIGHBORHOOD INVESTMENTS. OUR PRIORITIES INCLUDE INFILL HOUSING, HOUSING REHABILITATION, COMMUNITY GREENING PROJECTS, AND EXPANDING WATERBURY'S TREE CANOPY. OUR WORK PROMOTES A MIX OF HOUSING OPTIONS, REDUCES BLIGHT, AND CLEARS DILAPIDATED STRUCTURES TO ALLOW NEW DEVELOPMENT.
