Services for Developers
Developers get a bad rap, and sometimes that is not unwarranted. However, we need good developers to build the housing, workplaces, and entertainment that our city plans envision, and some developers care about delivering attractive, sustainable, and equitable projects for their communities. If you are that kind of developer, Zack Urban Solutions can help you make your idea come to life. We can help you deal with the unique challenges that come with infill development, envision the possibilities for unusual sites, and navigate complex zoning codes and entitlement processes. By connecting with neighbors, city staff, and elected officials, we can help community-minded developers succeed by providing services such as:
- Visioning
