Bradley County Land Conservancy

Bradley County Land Conservancy We are a non-profit, non-governmental organization, which works within the community to preserve all the things that make Bradley County special.

Through a unique partnership with the Land Trust for Tennessee, BCLC works with local property owners to protect their property in perpetuity. The primary tool for property protection is through the use of conservation easements. A conservation easement is a voluntary legal document listing a number of restrictions a landowner wishes to place on their land. You may, for example, restrict subdividi

ng your property or oil drilling. The document becomes part of the deed and is recorded in the county registry. When the land changes hands the new owner is bound by the terms of the easement, meaning the wishes of the original land owner are respected. An easement may confer federal and state income tax advantages. If property appreciates greatly heirs may not be able to pay the taxes. A conservation easement on land may reduce a properties value and thus reduce estate taxes allowing heirs to keep the property. If you're interested in preserving local history, environmental protection, or just love the rural lifestyle; contact us to find out how you can get involved.
