Permitting

Construction and permitting requirements are always changing, and it’s critical to stay on top of local, state, and federal permit regulations. We have extensive knowledge of past and current laws, as well as significant experience presenting to local regulatory boards and commissions. Our projects have involved complex permitting processes with Conservation Commissions, Planning Boards, Zoning Boards of Appeals, Boards of Health, and Departments of Environmental Protection, to name just a few. We are committed to advocating on behalf of our clients, while balancing the concerns of the public, to obtain optimal results.

Construction Administration

Once permits are issued, CDCI begins the process of preparing construction documents and specifications. We work closely with our clients to review bids and ensure all aspects of construction are sufficiently addressed. We also perform inspection and observation services to confirm that construction proceeds in compliance with the approved plans.
