Program accomplishments

ASLPT WILL ALSO BE MEETING WITH THE LOCAL TOWNS TO DISCUSS INTRODUCTIONS WITH LANDOWNERS. ASLPT PROTECTS PROPERTIES THROUGH BOTH CONSERVATION EASEMENTS AND FEE SIMPLE ACQUISITION. LAND PROTECTION INCLUDES REVIEW, EVALUATION, AND DETAILED RESEARCH BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THE PROTECTION OF A PROPERTY. ASLPT INSURES THAT EVERY TRANSACTION IS LEGAL, PROPER, AND APPROPRIATE TO THE GOALS OF THE LAND TRUST AND THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE LAND TRUST ACCREDITATION COMMISSION. FOR EACH CONSERVATION PROJECT, WE PREPARE A BASELINE DOCUMENTATION REPORT THAT PROVIDES A DETAILED REPRESENTATION OF THE PROPERTY AND ITS CONDITION AT THE TIME OF ITS TRANSFER.Expenses $68,928
- COMMUNITY RELATIONS AND EDUCATION: ASLPT IS PROACTIVE IN BUILDING COMMUNITY RELATIONS AND EDUCATING ITS MEMBERS, LANDOWNERS, CONSERVATION PARTNERS, GOVERNMENT LEADERS, AND THE PUBLIC. OUR GOAL IS TO BE RECOGNIZED AS A TRUSTED RESOURCE FOR LAND PROTECTION EXPERTISE IN THE MOUNT KEARSARGE/RAGGED/LAKE SUNAPEE REGION OF NEW HAMPSHIRE. WE SPONSOR AND OFFER CONSERVATION RELATED EVENTS, MEETINGS, AND WORKSHOPS AIMED AT BUILDING CLOSE TIES WITH THE COMMUNITY IN THE TWELVE TOWNS WE SERVE, AROUND LAND PROTECTION ISSUES, GROWTH/DEVELOPMENT CHALLENGES, AND CONSERVATION PRIORITIES. ADDITIONALLY, OUR OUTREACH EFFORTS INCLUDE HOSTING A SEMI-ANNUAL CONSERVATION COMMISSION CHAIRPERSON'S ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSION TO EXCHANGE INFORMATION, RESOURCES, AND EXPERIENCES THROUGHOUT THE REGION. WE UTILIZE NUMEROUS COMMUNICATION RESOURCES INCLUDING A TWICE-YEARLY PRINTED NEWSLETTER, MAILINGS, FACT SHEETS, E-BLASTS, WEBSITE, IN-PERSON EVENTS HELD ON CONSERVATION PROPERTIES, SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS TO CIVIC GROUPS, AND NEIGHBORHOOD GATHERINGS.Expenses $384,846

MONITORING IS THE ANNUAL PERIODIC PROPERTY INSPECTIONS BY OUR TRAINED VOLUNTEER MONITORS OR STAFF, AS WELL AS THE PREPARATION OF DOCUMENTS FOR THE INSPECTION AND DOCUMENTATION AND FOLLOW-UP OF THE INSPECTION.

ALL MONITORING REPORTS ARE REVIEWED BY STAFF AND IN THE EVENT OF A COMPLIANCE ISSUE, ASLPT STAFF CARRIES OUT AN INVESTIGATION AND WORKS TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE.MONITORING IS DONE BY VOLUNTEERS; HOWEVER, WE GENERALLY AIM TO HAVE STAFF VISIT 20 OF THESE PROPERTIES WITH VOLUNTEER MONITORS EACH YEAR. THESE VISITS VARY IN LENGTH DEPENDING ON THE SIZE OF THE PROPERTY AND THE RESTRICTIONS ON THE PROPERTY. WE GENERALLY HAVE A TRAINING SESSION IN EARLY JUNE FOR NEW VOLUNTEERS. THE TRAINING INCLUDES AN ONLINE INSTRUCTIONAL COMPONENT OF APPROXIMATELY THREE HOURS AS WELL AS A FIELD VISIT. DURING THESE SESSIONS WE INSTRUCT THE VOLUNTEERS ON THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES WHEN THEY ARE MONITORING THE PROPERTY. WE ALSO KEEP THE VOLUNTEERS UPDATED ON ANY CHANGES IN POLICIES WE HAVE REGARDING MONITORING.WE USE DRONE TECHNOLOGY TO AUGMENT ON THE GROUND MONITORING AND WE ARE USING AERIAL IMAGERY BY UTILIZING THE ONLINE WEBSITE FOR LENS.
