Our illegal dumping prevention work is well underway.
After this weekend ends, we will have cleaned and installed deterrents to dumping on more than 80 lots at 13 different locations.
Yesterday, we hosted a training with more than 50 Clean & Green program participants to kick off our dumping prevention survey. Groups now have the tools to help us identify all Land Bank sites with trash and debris throughout the City.
With better data about illegal dumping, we will be better equipped to find solutions.

Our Multi-Faceted Approach to Fighting Blight:
We are committed to eliminating blight and uplifting our community. Here's how we're making a difference:
๐ทโโ๏ธ Local Crews, Local Impact: We hire local people to maintain vacant properties, mowing tall grass and removing trash.
๐ฑ Community-Powered Clean & Green: Our Clean & Green program is the backbone of our community engagement. Each year, over 1,000 volunteers from 70 community organizations join us in maintaining vacant properties and enhancing neighborhoods. Get Involved: https://www.thelandbank.org/cleanandgreen.asp
๐ Sustainable Solutions: After demolishing blighted structures, we plant Dutch White Clover to reduce long-term maintenance costs. Bonus: It's great for the soil and pollinators! Read More: https://www.thelandbank.org/demofunding.asp

๐ Rehabilitation Spotlight: 3207 Mackin Rd. - A Mid-Century Modern Restoration! ๐ ๏ธ
We're thrilled to share the ongoing progress of this Land Bank historic renovation project! We're laying the groundwork for some incredible transformations in the weeks ahead.
๐ Highlight Features:
- This is a house built for entertaining! Look at the great room and that fireplace placement, made for parties. It was once the social hub of the neighborhood - once again it will be the best house on the block.
- What was once a carport has been skillfully converted into a fully enclosed garage, adding both value and functionality to the home.
- Check out that new gate! Will be the security door for the court yard.
Stay Tuned!
We'll be posting regular update photos to keep you in the loop on how this renovation is going.
Thank you for your continued support as we work to revitalize our community, one home at a time.
It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of Mr. Chris Del Morone.
Chris was a devoted and dependable member of the Land Bankโs Citizens Advisory Council for over a decade and has served as Chair of the council for the past 8 years. We could also count on Chris being present at the Land Bankโs Board of Directorโs monthly meeting.
Chris was a strong and caring advocate for the city of Flint and its citizens. Therefore, it was not a surprise to see Chris at meetings or events pertaining to the greater Flint community. The Genesee County Land Bank has lost a passionate leader. Our hearts and prayers go out to Chrisโs family and friends during this difficult time.
Chris will be sorely missed but his legacy of service will always remain.
๐ซ๐๏ธ Standing Against Illegal Dumping in Flint
We're excited to share that we're rolling out a new strategy to combat illegal dumping in our community. Featured on ABC12, our approach uses boulders, lights, and cameras to deter dumping on vacant lots.

Flint, MI โ The Genesee County Land Bank Authority (GCLBA) is partnering with the Michigan Youth Violence Prevention Center (MI-YVPC) on dumping
As Flint's population has shifted over the years, so have the amount of vacant properties. While this has been one of the cities greatest challenges, we are seeing changes in the in the amount of vacancy and foreclosures. We've made significant progress in revitalizing our neighborhoods, but there's always more work to be done.
The Land Bank serves as a conduit for positive change, acquiring properties post-foreclosure and connecting them with responsible owners. Through programs like Featured homes - https://www.thelandbank.org/featured_homes.asp and vacant land sales, we're committed to ensuring these properties find caretakers who have the resources and dedication to improve them.
Our community partnerships have been invaluable in this journey, helping us give new purpose to vacant properties. This is a community effort, and together, we can continue to shape a brighter future for Flint, one property at a time.
๐ฑ๐ Mowing Milestone Achieved: First round of mows in the city of Flint are completed!
We're thrilled to announce that our dedicated crews have not only finished their work ahead of schedule but they are also further ahead of schedule than they have ever been! They've completed the entire mowing cycle.
๐ Double the Effort: Thanks to their exceptional speed, we've even managed to complete the mowing cycle a in record time this year! This will allow us to mow more of the city second time.

King Avenue PLUS is a Flint neighborhood organization made up of those who touch King Avenue or have an interest in revitalizing this neighborhood.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a man of vision for positive change, faith, & peace. A major Flint Street is named for Dr. King AND King Avenue PLUS is working to make sure that Flint's King Avenue is a street that is valued and attractive for neighbors, businesses, & those that pass through our community. At King and McClellan there was a cluster of abandoned and uncared for vacant lots. Barbara Culp lives across the street & she proposed taking care of one lotโฆ.and King Avenue PLUS folks caught the dreamโฆ.and the hard work.
Early on, the U of M Flint Design Studio participated in the development of a logo and surveys....we learned more about the dreams, wishes and worries of the neighborhood. The suggestion - and the following complicated work - led by neighbors, churches, organizations, the U of M-Flint, and Applewood staff designed and changed the 9 vacant lots bordered by King Avenue, W. McClellan Street, and Genesee Street from abandoned vacant lots to a distinctive mound "defining" King Avenue, 2 pergolas and their surrounding perennial gardens, and 2 "round" gardens closer to the neighborhood on W. McClellan and W. Genesee Street. All but one of the lots are owned by the Genesee County Land Bank....King Avenue PLUS leases the lots and follows the Land Bank's requirements - approval of all structure that "penetrates" the earth including that of signs- and active liability insurance that covers not only participants from our group but potential "guests" when King Avenue PLUS is not present! Core members are an active 12 persons who meet on Wednesday mornings (through the outdoor season, these are meetings that include "business" with much of that business being the physical care of this large garden area.) Larger volunteer groups sometimes comeโฆ.leadership, tools, plans are a part of the King Avenue PLUS job โ folks learn what can be done and become a part of caring for our City and its hard work. The Community Tool Shed provides tools!
Keep Genesee County Beautiful and the Flint Public Arts Project have brought work and guidance - and many guests into the King Avenue Business District. Habitat for Humanity and the Community Foundation have supported both the work of many volunteer groups and the expenses of establishing and caring for perennial gardens. The absence of businesses in the Business District is a major worry - and requires marketing skills, communication with 'absent' owners, support of the tenants, and the responsibility of keeping the area physically sharp.
A before and after of 2411 Thornton Ave. We're proud to see conditions improving as the work is being done!

๐ Congratulations to Future Stars Learning Center LLC on the tremendous success of yesterdayโs Back-to-School community event at Ballenger Park! We are thrilled to have been part of this wonderful initiative and couldn't be prouder of the positive impact made in the lives of over 400 Flint children.
At the event, local youth had a blast indulging in delicious food from a variety of food trucks, receiving stylish haircuts and braiding, and receiving bookbags filled with essential school supplies. It was truly a day of fun and preparation for the upcoming school year!
We were honored to be a present and contribute to the excitement by distributing mouthwatering cookies from Flint's very own The Cookie Jar. Witnessing the priceless smiles on the children's faces was an incredibly heartwarming experience.
Weโre already looking forward to next year's event and the continuation of this wonderful tradition. To Jasmine Burrell, Claressa Shields, Chase Bank, the Genesee County Sheriff's Office, all organizers, participants, performers, vendors, and sponsors, thank you for setting the bar high and making a lasting difference in the community!

4๏ธโฃ Contact your local Assessor's Office for additional ownership information.
5๏ธโฃ Visit the Register of Deeds to purchase a copy of the most recent deed on file. If you're purchasing the property, also check for any liens contact the treasurers office for any outstanding taxes and ROD for liens in addition to ownership.
6๏ธโฃ If you're buying the property, make sure you receive and record the official deed.

The City of Flint and the Genesee County Land Bank are partnering in releasing Beyond Blight 2022, which provides direction for eliminating blight in Flint. Watch the video in this post for an overview or click https://bit.ly/3rVZcjo to view Beyond Blight 2022 in full.
We are grateful for our partners in blight elimination at the City and County! Genesee County has committed $8 million in ARPA funds towards demolition in Flint and Genesee County. This is in addition to the $16 million in ARPA funds that the City has already committed for demolitions within the City. We are now well on our way of achieving our goal of securing $45.3 million to demolish 2,200 structures by 2026! Video: ABC12
Weโd like to give a shout out to the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE). Many of the properties Genesee County Land Bank receives after tax foreclosure come with significant hurdles to resale and development. Particularly, many commercial properties in our inventory are blighted and contaminated, requiring prospective purchasers or developers to conduct additional due diligence and plan/budget to address such concerns when considering these properties. In an effort to utilize all available resources to both protect human health and position properties for a reuse, GCLBA works closely with EGLE who has conducted assessment and cleanup work at multiple properties of concern over the years. Identifying and removing underground storage tanks and related contamination can be a lengthy and costly (and often surprising!) process, and we are grateful for the commitment of EGLE to Flint and Genesee County to help address such concerns and some tax-foreclosed properties. Check out these pictures of some of the work EGLE has conducted in the past year!
Partnering to Revitalize Neighborhoods The Land Bank continued to support and partner in the revitalization efforts in the Durant Tuuri Mott (DTM) target area. We collaborated in several neighborhood improvements completed during fiscal year 2021, including: demolished 17 structures, completed two full-code rehabs that were sold to income qualifying buyers, repaired faรงades of three properties, painted five utility boxes, replaced sidewalks for six properties in the Carriage Town neighborhood, repainted a community resource center, repaired broken lighting at the Garland St bridge, and co-hosted a neighborhood festival with over 300 attendees.

The buildings are gone and the contractor is grading the site at 817 N Stevenson St! Topsoil, seed and straw will be placed later this Spring.
In the month of October, Genesee County Land Bank oversaw the demolition of four notorious blighted and dangerous structures. We posted in-process pictures of some of them along the way. Here are some nice before and after photos to lift your spirits to start your week. Weโd like to thank the City of Flint for providing funding to support these projects!
Today is a beautiful day to make use of Chevy Commons. Here are some sights and sounds around Chevy on this breezy and warm Friday morning. Have a wonderful weekend!
Demolition is one of the Land Bankโs most well-known and popular activities. Residents and community members share, time and time again, that demolishing blighted structures makes them feel safer and improves neighborhood conditions. More than 8,200 blighted Land Bank structures have been demolished in Genesee County since 2004, primarily with grant funds. The Land Bank has raised or leveraged more than $100 million to assess, demolish, and rehab blighted structures in Genesee County.
