Purpose & Background
The Glynn-Brunswick Land Bank Authority (GBLBA) was established to acquire tax delinquent properties in order to foster the public purpose of returning non-revenue generating, non-tax producing land to an effective utilization status in order to provide housing, new industry, and jobs for the citizens of the county. The GBLBA Board has seven members: 2 members of the Brunswick City Commission, 2 members of the Glynn County Board of Commissioners, 1 member of the Glynn County Board of Education, and 2 citizens.
The Glynn-Brunswick Land Bank Authority functions as a strategic development tool that supports growth and investment within the neighborhoods of Glynn County through the elimination of blighted and abandoned properties. The GBLBA acquires these properties and makes them available for redevelopment by qualified non-profits, developers, investors, and individuals.
