Before full plans, check what the lot allows

Before full plans, check what the lot allows. We look at zoning, setbacks, height, and lot coverage; ADU rules; critical areas and slopes; utilities and septic or sewer; and whether a pre-application meeting helps. Geotech, survey, and septic work come from specialists when needed.
