Community Land Trusts
Just learned about these and they look like solid ways to secure affordable housing in Denton. Someone should get on this. Don't depend on political entities to do the right thing when we can directly do it ourselves.

This is the first I've heard of these. The information online looks like a bit to take in. What do you see as the advantage of these? If me and 50 of my friends get together we could build our own community?
From what I understand, yeah. It looks like it's the same principle of a co-op, but for housing instead of employment. Where people living there and the people upkeeping the area (I assume they'd basically be the same) are in charge of that section of housing. That means no scumbag landlords and no property whores like Scott Shitstain.
I'm in.
I don't know how long I'll get to stay here but I would jump. I love this place and seriously think of it as home. I'll always think of this as home. It's the first place I felt at home in my life.
I want to save it for the future.
