Type an address, check it's your lot, and the report opens on screen in about a minute: the zone and how many dwelling units it allows, everything mapped in the way, and every rule on the lot in plain English, with the sources and a PDF to keep. $9 plus applicable taxes. Some lots don't have a clear satellite view, and when that happens the report still includes the lot plan and everything else.
Planning a project and want someone to do the legwork? A land-use feasibility study is us making the phone calls, finding the records no map holds, and checking your project against the rules option by option.
