In the ever-changing world of permitting, excellent working relationships with the individuals responsible for reviewing and approving permits have become an invaluable resource. We focus on these connections to ease the stresses during the final phases of your development planning and permitting process.

Over my twenty-four years in the business, the days of simplified permit plans and submittals are long gone. With the adoption of online portals and reduced direct contact with county officials, this process can be time-consuming and frustrating for any homeowner or developer to navigate.

This is where our dedicated and experienced staff work to streamline the process, ensuring the project stays on track through a deep understanding of local building codes, zoning regulations and permitting requirements. As county regulations continue to evolve with requirements that can sometimes seem insurmountable, we can help avoid common pitfalls such as code misinterpretation, incomplete critical area worksheets, bond applications and Lot Merger Agreements. Any of these can cause unforeseen delays in the processing of your project.

Keeping up with new legislation as each is adopted and navigating the maze of blue notices in Anne Arundel County are our specialties. Our team focuses on ensuring that, within our permitting division and with our engineers, we are always up to date with current Inspections and Permit regulations.

The Land Use Navigator System is a web-based application that allows engineering firms to access plan reviews, obtain inspections and apply for all types of permits. These online systems may have eliminated the need for homeowners to obtain their own permits. However, the benefit of having the appropriate team processing your documents, is an accelerated approval process, saving you time and money.
