EVERYTHING THAT MAKES JACKSON SO SPECIAL— the stunning scenery, the open spaces, the wildlife—is protected through town, county and state development regulations, which can make planning a new construction project, whether a single house or an apartment building, a formidable task.
Jorgensen Associates, a planning, surveying and engineering rm in Jackson, has recently expanded its planning services to help guide people through all stages of planning a project, from understanding changing regulations to ling the proper paperwork. “We guide local landowners, developers and citizens through the arduous process of interpreting those regulations,” explains Brendan Schulte, a Jorgensen senior planner.
Schulte is one of five planners on staff at Jorgensen, along with longtime employees Francesca Paolucci-Rice, Abbie Stanford and Robyn Lunsford and the more recently hired Ron Levy. With this expansion in planning staff, Jorgensen can help more clients through the planning steps.
Whether you are a landowner wanting to develop a water feature or simply build a home, or a business interested in creating workforce housing, the planning procedures can be like traveling to another country where everyone speaks a different language, Schulte says. Jorgensen’s full-service planning assistance provides the translation you need. With a large staff of engineers and specialists, planners have easy access to experts in-house, making the whole process seamless.
