Land Holdings: Madison Area Community Land Trust has developed three neighborhoods in Madison, Wisconsin: Anniversary Court, Troy Gardens, and Camino del Sol. Anniversary Court was MACLT’s first condominium development, which includes 14 duplex-style townhomes and is governed by the Anniversary Court Condominium Owners Association. Camino del Sol was then developed by MACLT as a single-family subdivision with 12 single-family homes and a duplex. Troy Gardens is an award-winning 31-acre project which combines green space with an accessible cohousing condo development. It includes community gardens, a certified-organic urban farm, and a restored prairie managed by Rooted WI, a partner organization. The Troy Gardens Condo Association, adjacent to the greenspace, is a mixed-income cohousing community with 20 permanently affordable homes and 10 market rate homes, all of which utilize universal design principles for accessibility. In addition, MACLT has developed (as of this writing) 16 single-family homes scattered among Madison neighborhoods, most of which were developed as acquisition-rehab properties. Several new construction projects are also in development as of 2023. Governance Notes: Bylaws: MACLT is a membership organization with Resident Members, Organizational Members, and General Members.
