Professional Services
Right of Way Abandonments
Cities and towns have the ability to privatize and sell streets, alleys, and other rights of way if an applicant can prove the right of way is no longer needed for public use.
Our team will draft a convincing narrative and deliver a presentation to the relevant hearing officer that will increase your property value and give you more land.
Infill District Developments
Multiple sections in local zoning ordinances were amended to provide an additional development option for property with multifamily, commercial and downtown zoning.
Working with J.E. Greenman Consulting will allow you to develop your property at the highest possible use while limiting items such as parking.
Adaptive Reuse Projects
The City of Phoenix offers development guidance, streamlined processes, reduced timeframes, and cost savings to customers looking to adapt older buildings for new business uses.
Let our consulting team assist you through this process to save your project time and money. J.E. Greenman has secured additional City funding of up to $7,000 of funding for adaptive reuse projects.
Property Research and Due Diligence
Don't buy a property without talking to us first! Realtors love telling customers statistics like density and allowable area without properly investigating project-hindering issues such as parking, setbacks, access, easements, height restrictions, etc.
We do the research for you, and we can create conceptual site plans that show what actually can be done on the site before you make a big investment. Our team has the background and experience to help start your project on the right track.
Variances, Use Permits, Rezonings
Variances, Use Permits, and Rezonings are complex land use applications, each with its own intricate criteria.
Our team will create applications, narratives, and notification letters for the submittal that will give you the best chance for approval.
We will also deliver creative and convincing presentations and arguments to to the necessary reviewing boards while finding solutions to potential issues.
