Zoning, What’s The Big Deal? Critical Skills For A Crucial Process

I was asked to budget for municipal expenses and research time. Why do I need to spend time and money working with municipal zoning, board of adjustment, and planning boards as well as being approved for a certificate of occupancy?

Join us in learning what a zoning, board of adjustment, and planning board does and why you need to work with a local municipality. Review the steps in being approved for a certificate of occupancy and why a business needs to work with the fire prevention bureau in their local municipality. Spending time and money on this and more will save you in the future!
