Land Bank

The mission of the Land Bank is to return tax-foreclosed and abandoned properties to productive use, contribute tax revenue to Wayne County, and promote community rehabilitation across its municipalities. Three main objectives drive the Wayne County Land Bank’s operations: 

  1. Preserving or increasing property values throughout Wayne County by actively developing vacant, under-utilized, and blighted properties.
  2. Engaging in community development projects that promote health, safety, and wellness.
  3. Working with state, local, and non-profit partners to dedicate distressed properties for public use. 
While the Wayne County Land Bank is an independent authority, it works closely with the Economic Development Department to leverage its unique capacities for Wayne County residents.
