Form Based Code Calibration
"The Code is the hardware, how you govern is the software" - Andres Duany, CNU Board Emeritus

Lamphier-Gregory understands that every community desires good planning and good governance. We know from experience that form-based codes can provide an immense benefit towards achieving both objectives. We can ensure your form-based code:
Enables predictable fulfillment of its accompanying plan
Has adequate and clear text supporting graphic standards
Is seamlessly integrated into the decision-making processes
Makes possible reduced project evaluation timeframes
Facilitates value-added discretionary review
Unconfused administration is the key to successful form-based code implementation.

We offer expertise from planners who have both calibrated form-based codes and applied them to real development projects. Our knowledge of planning and zoning law, plus CEQA and NEPA, provides a comprehensive skill set to shepherd your entire form-based code project - whether embedded in a specific plan or zoning ordinance - all the way from community visioning to on-the-ground implementation.

This unique combination of service capabilities can provide you with a consistent, single source for preparation, environmental review and administration assistance of your form-based code project.
