This year marks the Department s 26 th year of sponsoring this event.

Workshop sessions are arranged in both plenary and concurrent formats and will include topics of interest to practitioners engaged in the acquisition of right of way for transportation improvement projects. This year, many of the sessions will be repeated throughout the workshop. The core subjects to be covered at the event include appraisal, purchasing, relocation assistance and legal considerations involving right of way activities. Related topics will include environmental topics, valuing and negotiating real estate rights, case law and legislative updates, condemnation and many other topics of interest to our city and county partners as well as the private sector. We have developed sessions, which are tailored for appraisers, relocation advisors, purchasing agents and other professionals as well as real estate generalists working for counties and cities. Our primary goal is to meet the needs and concerns of workshop participants. We value your opinions and suggestions, which make each succeeding year s event more valuable to those in attendance.
