OUR MISSION <br />
At <strong>Westchester</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Trust</strong>, our mission<br />
is clear and simple: We preserve land in partnership<br />
with private property owners. We help communities<br />
create new parks and preserves. And we work to foster<br />
sound land use planning.<br />
We think our accomplishments show that we've been true to<br />
our mission.<br />
From our founding in 1988, we have protected 4,464 acres in 25 communities<br />
- 2,825 acres in conservation easements, 1,123 acres in new<br />
public parks and preserves, and 516 acres in preserves that we own.<br />
We've highlighted some of our 20<strong>06</strong> successes in this annual<br />
report, and illustrated them with photographs by Christian<br />
<strong>Westchester</strong> <strong>Land</strong><br />
<strong>Trust</strong> holds 144<br />
conservation easements<br />
and owns<br />
30 preserves.<br />
Harder. We hope you enjoy the results.<br />
