Oregon Conservation Law Forum - August 14, 2019

The Oregon Conservation Law Forum is an educational program for attorneys with land trusts, public agencies and law firms to learn, discuss and help shape land conservation law in Oregon. The purpose of the forum is to discuss current legal cases, emerging legal and policy issues for land conservation, to review strategies, and to provide guidance for meeting these challenges. Through these forums, COLT hopes to support a peer network of attorneys that share a common interest in conservation and land use in Oregon.

Please join the August 14th forum, to be held at Schwabe, Williamson & Wyatt in Portland

Our current agenda for the forum:

• Revitalizing your conservation easement template, with Konrad Liegel (Attorney-at-law)
• 2019 Oregon Legislative Session recap, with Gordon Levitt (COLT legislative coordinator)
• Dealing with severed mineral rights, with Michelle Smith (COLT Volunteer Pro-bono attorney) and Eden Taylor (COLT Legal Intern)

You can also download the current agenda here.

The forum will run from 10am-2:30pm, and will include a catered lunch. MCLE Credits are available.
