Using Local Ties And Legal Insight To Advocate Client Interests.

Representing Real Estate Professionals Throughout The Lower Hudson Valley

Our Land Use and Zoning practice area is led by partner Dan Hollis who has been practicing law in Mount Kisco for over 50 years. Whether the client’s plans involve a large commercial developer, a religious or educational institution, a business looking to initially construct or to expand its facilities, or individuals looking to subdivide their residential land, we can bring a high level of sophistication and attention to detail to help our clients deal with the most intricate, nuanced and complicated issues that might present themselves during the zoning and planning approval process.

We are known and respected by many of the local land use and planning boards throughout Westchester County and the Lower Hudson Valley, as well as the city, town or village employees who manage the zoning and planning process, which helps to smooth what can often be a cumbersome and lengthy process.

Land Use and Zoning Issues We Can Assist You With

We offer a full range of land use and legal services, including the following:

  • Processing and handling applications for site plan approvals, area variances, use variances, special use permits, and boundary line changes before local planning boards, zoning boards of appeals, town boards, and other municipal boards, commissions or agencies.
  • Preparing, processing and handling applications to change the zoning of a client’s property or other laws or legislative acts that impact real estate, whether commercial, residential or both.
  • Environmental compliance, including SEQRA counseling, impact statement drafting and coordination with other professionals, such as architects and engineers.
  • Litigating any appeal of the denial of a client’s application or in defending against neighborhood opposition in the New York State Supreme Court in the county in which the property is located.

Our attorneys understand the numerous technical and environmental requirements that affect land use matters, whether imposed by local or New York State agencies. We work and coordinate with technical, environmental, design and planning consultants, including those retained by our clients or hired by the municipality.
