The participants/target audience: New and tenured agents, landowners and tenants
Other partners (if applicable) Seven other ANR Agents with varying years of experience from across the commonwealth.
Program impact or participant response.: The committee decided that a survey should not be conducted at present time but rather a fact sheet that highlighted considerations when determining a fair an equitable rental rate. This agent solicited input from the committee members and a fact sheet is in progress. A sub committee of the committee also suggested that a second fact sheet be considered which would highlight the lease agreement terms or what goes into a lease agreement as well as the possibility of an in service for ANR agents.
