On April 21, 2021, Brad Kuhn will be participating in the sixth annual International Right of Way Association (IRWA) Chapter 57 and Southern California Chapter of the Appraisal Institute's (SCCAI) Joint Meeting.

This program will also include:

• The statutory and case law landscape that gives rise to the issue of project benefits, when and how they may apply, and methods and techniques used for quantifying benefits;
• The MidCoast light rail project and other public projects that will illustrate a range of potential sources of benefits and how potentially appraisers can measure benefits;
• Tips and tricks and sources of data; and
• Perspectives from both the attorney and the appraiser, including experiences through the lens of both public agencies and property owners.
