A great advantage of working with a multi-discipline firm is the availability of reviews by other disciplines with other perspectives - which increases the likelihood that concepts will work on the ground. Wallace Group planners draw on the combined experience of our individual in-house disciplines to ensure successful solutions to complex questions of development.
As we recommend development strategies, prepare Specific Plans, General Plan Amendments or Design Guidelines, and collaborate on Tentative Parcel and Tract Maps with our Civil and Survey Divisions, we are committed to finding solutions for a sustainable future. Imaginative, comprehensive thinking with understanding is essential as we create new development that is environmentally responsible and economically successful.
Our planners create real world, workable solutions from innovative, abstract concepts. We are pragmatic, we innovate, and we are involved. Successful projects must respond to real world constraints - environmental, physical, regulatory, and economic. We take a project from strategy, due diligence and constraints analysis through design and entitlement. While we work daily with agency ordinances, environmental regulations, and design standards, we continually look toward trends for more responsible development.
Our presentation graphics use the appropriate technique, ranging from hand sketches through a complete range of technical and aesthetic electronic exhibits. We understand that through facilitating the public information and visioning processes, and providing successful presentations at public hearings, we have a role in changing our world.
