Land Planning & Landscape Architecture              

The number of transportation improvement projects taking place in Florida has created the need for attorneys, appraisers and engineers to seek expert advise from experienced planners schooled in urban and regional planning concepts such as comprehensive plans, concurrency management, zoning and land-use compatibility. Even more essential is practical experience in private development planning including the areas of site design and layout. These tools have become essential in evaluating various aspects of even the smallest property being taken to satisfy right-of-way requirements.

JCR has assisted private developers and governmental agencies in evaluating various sites to determine highest and best use and cost to cure scenarios to mitigate impacts. Accomplishing these tasks encompassed the completion of field research and documentation, determining taking impact issues, listing resultant damages, and developing cost estimates.
