Land Use and Community Planning

At Hemmera, we are proven and trusted partners, who are uniquely skilled in consulting and negotiating with communities and other clients in land use planning. We have managed and contributed to land use and community planning projects for municipalities, government departments, and clients in many industry sectors. Whether the issues relate to climate change objectives, sustainability planning, land remediation, or an industrial, resource or transportation project, we bring experience and an innovative approach to community consultation.

We understand that land and resource developments can have a direct impact on local residents, and that consultation and negotiation with nearby communities can play a critical role in a project’s ability to advance. Accordingly, we focus on establishing communication frameworks early in a project, and on building relationships that can identify and resolve key issues quickly.

We have devised a broad range of programs and services to facilitate negotiation between our clients and local communities. For each project, we develop and deliver a customized consultation program—and we strive to be a valued partner, trusted by both our clients and the local population. We can manage any and all negotiations with regulators, and we have extensive experience in presenting projects to stakeholders, and building the support that is essential for success.
