Join us on The Public Good this week! We'll hear from Gretchen Gonzalez from the Volunteer Lawyer's Project. Gretchen will talk with us about City of Buffalo tax foreclosure reform.

Check out VLP's 2018 PPG Idea for a Better Buffalo below:

4. City of Buffalo tax foreclosure reform
The City of Buffalo should improve its tax foreclosure practices by accepting partial payments on unpaid bills, making installment agreements with residents who fall behind, allowing uninterrupted access to the City’s online payment portal, and creating a Hardship Assistance Program to provide aid, counseling, and the tolling of interest.

The show will air live on Power 96.5 WNY at 7pm, and on PPG's Facebook page at 1pm Tuesday, February 20th. You won't want to miss it!
