Side Lot Program

Vacant Lots = Potential!

Enhance the Block

The Side Lot program allows eligible property owners to acquire vacant land. If your house lies adjacent to a vacant lot, you may be qualified to expand your property. Reclaiming a vacant lot will enhance your property and beautify our community.

The application requires a non-refundable deposit, and submission of an application does not guarantee the Summit County Land Bank will approve the application, acquire any property, or dispose of any property to the applicant.  Please see the Side Lot Guidelines for additional information.

Please note that the approval process for a Side Lot program application can take up to 90 days, and the entire process can take up to 12+ months, depending on the property and the current number of applications in-process.

Please Note: The Side Lot Program Guidelines are currently undergoing a review and edit process and are subject to change at any time, without notice. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our office. Submission of an application will serve as an acknowledgement and understanding of this notice.

If you are unable to view/download the documents above, please give us a call. We would be happy to mail an application packet to you. Or, simply use our contact form, at the bottom of our Contact page, and let us know you would like us to mail you an application packet.
