Permit Processing

HMA is often asked to lead or serve on a team to take a development project through municipal planning and zoning permitting. Having prepared or updated many municipal zoning regulations, HMA is sensitive to the issues that municipalities are concerned with in the permitting process. This experience provides the applicant the opportunity to address issues while a project is being designed thereby minimizing points of contention. The experience of the firm in working with citizen groups coupled with its planning and graphics capabilities supports the permitting process.
