What is Land Entitlement?
Entitlements are the legal approvals required to develop a piece of land for a specific use. These approvals can include zoning changes, site plan approvals, variances, permits, and more. Obtaining the necessary entitlements is essential because they dictate what can be built on the property, how it can be used, and what conditions must be met during and after development.
The entitlement process can be complex and time-consuming, involving multiple stakeholders, including local government agencies, community groups, planning commissions, and city councils. It requires a thorough understanding of local regulations, as well as strategic planning and negotiation to secure the necessary approvals. Without the proper entitlements, a development project cannot move forward.
