Land Use Planning

The professional property development process typically involves an early on determination of the constraints likely to limit the development of a subject property. These constraints include regulatory requirements, physical limitations and abutter and community expectations. SITEC’s interdisciplinary group of professional engineers, field scientists and planners certified by the American Planning Association (APA) are uniquely qualified to identify these constraints and to formulate strategies for successfully proceeding through the complex local, state and federal land development permitting process. We have successfully designed and permitted hundreds of development projects, often involving difficult properties. We bring this extensive experience to the table to determine likely problems in advance, prior to the expenditure of a significant portion of a project budget.
