Conservation Credit Exchange
Description
In 2000, Mike Strugar established the nation’s first market for transferring conservation tax Credits in Colorado. In 2003, he founded Virginia’s Conservation Credit Exchange and registered Virginia’s very first conservation tax Credit to be transferred. Through both his Colorado and Virginia programs he has facilitated the transfer of over 1000 Credits valued at approximately $70 million.
The Conservation Credit Exchange is run by a land conservation attorney with 20 years experience in land conservation law and policy and nonprofit management.
Mike is a former partner in the law firm of Holme, Roberts, & Owen, and has been a regular adjunct faculty member at the University of Denver School of Law. Mike worked closely with the Department of Revenue in drafting regulations supporting Colorado's tax Credit legislation, closely monitors Virginia’s tax Credit legislation, and has established a close working relationship with the Internal Revenue Service.
