Century Land Planning and Zoning specialists were contacted to analyze multiple sites within desired markets in the northern Baltimore County area. The sites were studied for “best use” programs provided by Shelter’s needs, zoning issues and restriction, utility and traffic issues.  Certain sites were encumbered by neighboring covenants that would restrict development.  The plans included layout concepts that resolved engineering access, screening, traffic and building height issues. State Highway expansion, county zoning densities and setback requirements were also addressed in the design.

At the end of the project, Shelter Development selected a site based on the best land use analysis provided by Century’s team.  The plan proposed multiple access solutions, grading and earthwork studies, stormwater management requirements and potential setbacks and offsite improvement requirements. 

• Meeting existing zoning requirements.
• Coordinating with existing neighborhoods and businesses.
