Research, Planning & Zoning

Every permit starts with the right questions. AV+ Permitting researches the jurisdiction, the permit pathway and the land-use requirements up front, so the application is built on accurate information instead of assumptions.

What’s included

Before plans are submitted, a project needs a clear answer to where it will be reviewed, which permits apply and which zoning or development approvals stand in the way. This early research shapes the schedule, the submittal package and the conversations with the design team.

  • Permit feasibility and jurisdiction researchConfirming which authority reviews the project and which permit types and approvals apply to the scope.
  • Zoning verificationChecking the property's zoning designation and the uses and standards that come with it.
  • Code and land-use requirement coordinationGathering the applicable requirements so the design team and owner are working from the same list.
  • Development review coordinationCoordinating applications for development review, conditional or special use, variances and rezoning where a project requires them.
  • Site/civil and public works requirementsIdentifying site, civil and public works requirements that can affect the permit pathway.
