Organizational & Governing Documents

NBLT Public Documents

On this page you will find our organizational and governing documents that are available for public inspection, such as our original IRS Form 1023 application to become a nonprofit organization, Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, and our most recent IRS Form 990, which is our non- profit annual financial return. Please keep in mind that because we changed our name back in 2000, the older original documents use our former name Back Mountain Regional Land Trust (BMRLT).
