Zoning Assistance and Representation
We offer expert civil engineering services for rezoning representation in Oklahoma City. Whether you’re looking to rezone a property for a new development or need assistance navigating complex zoning regulations, our team provides comprehensive support throughout the entire process. We specialize in a variety of rezoning applications, including Planned Unit Development (PUD), Special Planned Unit Development (SPUD), and straight rezoning, ensuring your project aligns with local zoning laws and development goals.
PUD & SPUD Services: A Planned Unit Development (PUD) is an innovative zoning tool that allows for more flexible and creative site planning. If you're seeking to combine residential, commercial, and recreational uses on a single site, our team will guide you through the PUD approval process, helping you design a cohesive, sustainable development that meets your needs while adhering to Oklahoma City’s regulations.
For projects that require special zoning considerations or exceptions, we provide expert SPUD services. A Special Planned Unit Development (SPUD) offers a tailored zoning solution for unique or complex developments, allowing for specific exceptions to zoning laws in exchange for public benefits. Our team works closely with local authorities to ensure your SPUD proposal is approved smoothly and efficiently.
Straight Rezoning Services: For simpler rezoning needs, our team also handles straight rezoning, which involves changing a property’s zoning classification to match its intended use. Whether you need to switch from residential to commercial or reclassify land to accommodate specific project requirements, we ensure that your rezoning application is prepared thoroughly and in compliance with local codes.
Our Rezoning Representation Services Include:
PUD & SPUD Application Preparation: Comprehensive planning and documentation for Planned Unit Development and Special Planned Unit Development submissions.
Straight Rezoning: Guidance through the rezoning process to change land use designations or zoning classifications.
Site Design & Analysis: Collaboration with architects, urban planners, and local authorities to create designs that align with zoning requirements.
Zoning Hearing Representation: Representation at zoning hearings, meetings, and public forums to advocate for your project’s rezoning approval.
Regulatory Compliance: Ensuring that your rezoning request adheres to Oklahoma City's zoning ordinances, including any specific requirements for PUD or SPUD proposals.
