Once the site investigation report has been completed and your site has been deemed feasible for development, then the real work begins.
Depending on your project's location and complexity, there are several things that still need to happen before you can obtain a permit and begin construction. Below is a list of some of the most common tasks that are required. Don't worry -- your civil engineering consultant (like WGI) can help you with all of these, and more!
Surveying, Environmental, and Geotechnical
Preliminary Engineering and Design Tasks
Coordination and Permitting with City, County, and State Agencies
Construction Documents & Bidding Services
Construction Administration
In addition to the tasks listed above, a typical project will require meetings with city planners, engineers, and with the planning and city councils. A large amount of the magic happens behind the scenes when it comes to project delivery and reaching a stage where all the reviewing agencies can sign off on it. Our team has the local knowledge and relationships to make sure that your project is approved as efficiently as possible.
If your project is more complex, with additional stages like annexation, re-zoning, or going through as a planned unit development (PUD), more steps can be added to the scope. Changing the use of a parcel can also add additional meetings and time to a project.
We want to join your development team! Don’t let the fear of striking out get in your way. Contact us today so we can establish a game plan to make your next project a home run!
