Entitlement
Our firm is entrenched at the front lines of local jurisdictions throughout the Western United States. Each jurisdiction, agency, or governing body has unique sensibilities that only a firm with our history and experience could truly be attune to.
We understand the importance of community support, and take pride in creating value through land use entitlement. We work with a wide variety of partners to understand their investment goals, quantify the entitlement cost and risk of a project, and then execute the process.
