Wildland Conservation's first-hand experience and knowledge of state and local land preservation policies and practices gives us a unique edge in helping clients identify and preserve environmentally sensitive and significant lands.

We have successfully assisted local governments in Florida in developing funding tools for land preservation and winning approval of county land conservation referenda and ordinances.

Wildlands Conservation's team of negotiators has assisted with brokering land acquisitions across Florida for a variety of clients, including counties, the Southwest Florida Water Management District and individual landowners. We have also successfully placed properties on the state’s Florida Forever land list of approved preservation projects. As well as finding tools for land preservation, Wildland Conservation is an approved monitor for publicly-held conservation easements and environmental feature documentation.

We also work with conservation-minded private land owners to identify and implement the best mechanisms (e.g., fee simple acquisition, conservation easements) for meeting the land owners’ financial objectives and protecting the land’s ecological integrity. This also entails facilitating cost-sharing partnerships with federal, state, district and local land acquisition, mitigation, restoration and land management programs.
