Native American Land Rights: Impacts on Planning

The Susan Christopherson Center is sponsoring a series of talks with authors on planning related topics.  Upstate NY author Cindy Amrhein has written a great book laying out a history of treaties, land deals and land claims, as well as the unique sovereign rights of the Haudenosaunee have that few planners actually know about.  

The Haudenosaunee now have territories in 10 counties in New York and with land claim settlements have the potential for acquiring thousands of acres of new territory he coming decades.  This will be an opportunity for planners at the county and local levels to become better informed. It is free and open to the public.
