Lorman Education Services presents 'Zoning And Land Use' Seminar on November 16, 2005. This "Zoning And Land Use" seminar is designed to education attendees on local ordinances that control development and the processes that are required to make an application.
The public planner can provide a lot of insight, help and background to the developer, his agent, engineer, architect, surveyor or legal counsel at no cost except for a little of their time. Planners are familiar with local ordinances that control development and the processes that are required to make an application, to amend an application or an existing ordinance, or to suggest alternative ways which may be less burdensome that ultimately satisfy the needs of the developer.
South Carolina's Local Government Comprehensive Planning Enabling Act of 1994, as amended, allows municipalities to utilize various zoning and planning techniques to implement their comprehensive plans.
