Since the company’s founding in the mid-1970’s, Richland affiliates have controlled over 40,000 acres of land valued in excess of $1 billion.

Richland’s origins date back to the early 1970’s in Toronto, Canada, where founder, Jack Bray, began his career as a real estate broker and investment advisor. He later founded and operated his first construction and land-management company in Calgary, Canada, and in 1979 made his inaugural entry into the U.S. market with residential developments in Houston, Texas. Bray later focused his real estate investments in Orlando and Tampa, Florida before eventually heading west to launch Richland’s development activities in California in the mid-1990’s. In 2003, the company moved its corporate headquarters from Tampa to Newport Beach, California. In addition to real estate investment, Richland also is a leading owner and operator of broadcast and telecommunications tower facilities throughout the United States.

Community

Citizenship

Outreach

Richland has been a great community partner. In proposing the River Park project, they’ve listened carefully to and acted upon the input of our residents. I’ve been impressed with and am very appreciative of its support for numerous West Sacramento programs that are important to our residents. The Richland team has demonstrated in a very tangible way its strong commitment to corporate citizenship and it has had a very positive impact on our city. Oscar Villegas, Mayor Pro Tem, City of West Sacramento

Community Impact

Richland has been very generous to the Boys and Girls Club with financial donations. Jack Bray has been a member of the national Boys and Girls Club’s Jeremiah Milbank Society, our honorary group for particularly generous donors. But more importantly, Richland assigned one of its vice presidents to join our Board. He started at a particularly dire time for the Club and quickly became a trusted working member of our management team. He worked hard and provided critical leadership. Over the last seven years our Club has experienced a major turnaround. Richland’s financial contributions and sweat equity significantly contributed to this great result. Tammy Walz, Chief Professional Officer, Oceanside Boys and Girls Club

Environmental Benefit

The California Department of Conservation, the City of Lathrop and Richland’s project is an excellent example of how state and local government can work with the development community to benefit Californians. Meeting urban needs can sometimes become complicated and contentious when farmland conversion is at stake. But in this case, all of the parties involved benefited. It’s a win-win project. Richland’s use of the Easement Exchange Program providing for the dedication of nearly 1,000 acres to the Central Valley Farmland Trust deserves a great deal of credit for doing things the right way. They’ve established the standard for future situations like this. Mike Chrisman, Secretary for Resources, State of California

Economic Growth

When Richland proposed the Highland project, Roseville was a growing community but its economic engine was not yet fully revved. It was an ambitious, large-scale plan that we knew would take a highly capable organization to execute. Now that the project is nearly built out, it’s clear that it has played a central role in Roseville’s tremendous economic growth. With the mall, a variety of housing types and a strong job center, the Highland project has been a major contributor to the overall economic health of the city. Al Johnson, City Manager, 1988-2003, Roseville, California.

Richland values its neighbors and...

The very name, Richland Communities, reflects the priority they place on relationships where they’re doing business. They become an integral part of the community with their support and with their heart. I appreciate the company and the people who run and operate it. They sincerely are a part of our community and you would appreciate them coming to your community.

At the heart of Richland’s success is a strong and ongoing commitment to integrate the organization into the communities in which it does business. The company places a premium on developing a deep understanding of local priorities through ongoing collaboration with key public-sector staff, regulators, community and neighborhood organizations, elected officials and neighbors.
