As conversations around housing affordability, permitting timelines, and development processes continue, there is growing interest in understanding permitting and development review systems. The goal is to better understand what jurisdictions do and the practical factors that shape those decisions. We’re asking building departments, permitting professionals, and jurisdictional staff to share their perspective so the resulting insights reflect real-world experience from the field.
Responses will be kept anonymous, with the results reported in aggregate.
The deadline to participate is June 30.
