Lebanon Zoning Lawyers

For many years, the land use and zoning attorneys at Reilly, Wolfson, Sheffey, Schrum and Lundberg, LLP, have helped developers, homeowners, and private businesses resolve problems with local land use regulation, building permits, and land development plans. If you need advice about a residential variance or a commercial development, contact one of our knowledgeable attorneys in Lebanon.

Our long experience as counsel to a number of Lebanon Valley municipalities, boards, zoning hearing boards and authorities gives us the ability to advise private sector clients about the considerations that are most essential to local land use decisions. Our early involvement with your project can help you avoid the expense and delay associated with mistakes and oversights in application processes such as the following:

• Subdivision plans and land development plans
• Building permits
• Variances as to use or dimensions
• Conditional use permits
• Special exceptions

For major developments with the potential for generating employment opportunities, our firm can help you find financing through tax-exempt industrial revenue bonds by working with the local economic development authority. We can also assist small businesses and individuals in obtaining non-traditional financing for the development of their businesses. We serve as counsel to the Lebanon Valley Economic Development Corporation and other municipal governments, and our lawyers have considerable familiarity with the procedures involved with accessing the benefits of legislative tax incentive financing.

Our sophisticated approach to the resolution of obstacles to project permits and approvals also extends to high profile or controversial proposals that attract local opposition. We can help you manage media coverage, community relations, and public perceptions of your project in order to maximize the prospects of a procedurally sound approval.

When necessary, our land use attorneys can also appeal any adverse decision or excessively burdensome conditions to the Court of Common Pleas as provided under the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code.
