ST. LOUIS (KTVI) – St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay joined Aldermen Cara Spencer (20th Ward) and Chris Carter (27th Ward) in announcing the St. Louis Land Reutilization Authority’s ‘Mow to Own’ program as a means to restore blighted properties by incentivizing homeowners in the neighborhood.
Under the Mow to Own program, residents who live adjacent to a vacant LRA property can purchase temporary ownership of the land for just $125, but only if they agree to maintain it.
