URBAL Town — one square mile, car-free

How it works

Five parties. One town.

URBAL is a rewards-based crowdfunding platform. Five parties match, a monthly raise closes, and construction begins on a car-free, one-square-mile stone town — built around your preferences.

01

Pledger

Your ideal community. Your terms.

Pledge monthly — from $100 for a studio to $300 for a five-bedroom.

  • Share what you want through Instagram and Pinterest signals.
  • URBAL matches you with people who share your idea of living well.
  • When the raise closes your pledge becomes a Proprietary Lease Covenant — cost locked, neighbours selected.
02

Business

Demand earns your spot. Results keep it.

Pledgers signal which businesses they want, and how often they would actually visit.

  • The businesses with the highest verified demand earn a lease.
  • You don't buy in. You compete by demonstrating the community wants you.
  • You keep it by delivering — stewards vote on every commercial lease each December.
03

County

A $5B investment. 529s for every child.

Counties compete to host a town by adopting the URBAL Recipe.

  • They offer a PILOT rate and a land Letter of Intent.
  • The winner earns a $5B construction investment and the highest-value tax base in the state.
  • Plus $100M split into 529 college accounts for every child in county schools.
  • One county wins. One town is built.
04

Landowner

Fair market value. Then an annuity.

The county designates the parcel; the landowner receives a Letter of Intent.

  • A county-ordered independent appraisal sets the price at fair market value for raw greenfield land — not for the town it will become.
  • One transaction, one closing. The price set at the LOI does not change, and there is no renegotiation.
  • After construction the land earns an ongoing annuity, at a rate the landowner sets during the raise — a rate that competes, because it is one of the factors scoring their county against every other.
05

Bank

Earn the performance interest — if you deliver.

Banks bid to manage the $5B construction escrow and the town's Sovereign Wealth Fund.

  • Interest accrued before Labor Day is never the bank's — it sweeps into the SWF as every first-cohort steward's seed.
  • What the bank competes for is the performance tranche that follows.
  • Deliver on spec, on budget and on time and the bank keeps it. Miss and it is forfeited.
  • The bank earns by building well, not by sitting on the float.

Built differently

Different in
every dimension.

Physical

Car-free.
Stone. One
square mile.

No road grid — The Form-Based Code makes the car structurally impossible — not discouraged, not taxed, structurally absent.
CNC limestone — No concrete. No mortar. Tongue-and-groove cut stone with a 500-year structural design life.
10-minute walk — Every essential — doctor, school, employer, grocery, park — within one square mile.

Financial

One fee.
All-in.
Fixed for your term.

PLC — not a lease — The Proprietary Lease Covenant fixes your cost to square footage, never to market value. No landlord can raise it.
Everything included — Housing, healthcare, energy, education, Tea Leaves, Samara Air — one flat monthly number.
No surprise bills — No premium, no deductible, no tuition bill, no utility bill, no car payment. There is nothing else to arrive.

Governance

Every vote
binding.
Every vote permanent.

Annual Mainstay vote — Every commercial lease — café, clinic, employer — re-competed by steward vote each December. Flag in July, vote in December.
Immutable ledger — Every vote is permanently recorded. No one overrules it. No executive authority. The vote is the authority.
Quiet Council — Enforces steward votes. No judicial override. No political capture. No zoning board.

Network Effects

Each town
funds
the next.

Town → Bunch — One county winner per year. 12 monthly raises fund a full Bunch: 7 Towns, 1 City, and a 1-square-mile park — plus shared infrastructure: SMR energy, data centers, and a high-speed point-to-point gondola transit system.
Bunch → Bouquet — 4 Bunches. 36 square miles. A target of 844,000 residents. Each future Bunch is funded by the Ladder fee reserved from stewards already living in URBAL — no outside capital required.
Compounding demand — 25 million pledgers signal preferences before a stone is cut. That demand data is the product — it attracts businesses, counties, and banks.

A different model

Not renting.
Not owning.

Stewardship. A fixed-term covenant between you and a community you helped build.

URBAL stone architecture

Your cost. Locked at signing. Forever.

Indexed to square footage — not the market. No landlord. No variable rate. The number you sign is the number you pay.

Tailored
for you.

25 million people. A target of 10,000 homes. Profile — not wealth — decides who gets a key.

Community selection

Peace of mind,
built in.

Health covered. Education included. Cost certain. Morning yours.

How stewardship works →

Every system reinforces every other.

Car-free makes it walkable. Walkable makes it social. Social makes it safe. Stone makes it permanent.

URBAL architecture

Built to last
500 years.

The relief

One

bill. Not eleven.
Locked for your term.

Not a discount — a different structure. The things that arrive as eleven separate bills everywhere else arrive as one line here, fixed the day you sign.

What you juggle now

  • Rent or mortgage
  • Health insurance premium
  • Deductibles and copays
  • Car payment
  • Car insurance
  • Fuel and maintenance
  • Utilities
  • Internet
  • Daycare
  • Tuition
  • Property tax

What you pay here

Your monthly fee.

Every line above is inside it. The rate is set by formula, published in full, and locked at signing for the length of your term — it does not move with the market or with what your neighborhood becomes.

URBAL town

Energy at $0.045/sqft. Fixed.

SMR power. No utility. No grid risk. No markup.

How it scales

One town.
Scaled to thirty-six.

Towns become Bunches. Bunches become Bouquets. Each future layer funded by the Ladder fee reserved from stewards already living in URBAL.

1 square mile · 25,000 target · car-free

Why pledge now

Your pledge builds this.

No VC. No government. No bank. Raise fails — every dollar comes back.

Profile determines selection — not wealth. Pledge amount is capped in the formula.

$5B

Raise threshold. All in escrow.

Held by an independent custodian — not URBAL. Every dollar accounted for.

100%

Refunded if the raise fails.

All-or-nothing. Miss the threshold and the month voids automatically.

"Time. Autonomy.
Emotional stability."

Stone that outlasts every anxiety about what next year will cost.
