LAND USE and ZONING

Smith, Buss & Jacobs represents its clients in all aspects of land use and zoning. The firm’s attorneys have served on Zoning and Planning Boards in the communities in which they reside and have represented clients before Municipal Boards and agencies in several Westchester communities and in New York City. We have represented both developers and municipalities on zoning issues, subdivisions, the citing of large scale developments, and in litigation involving SEQRA, ULURP, and constitutional challenges. We have assisted clients in the planning and development of residential and commercial developments, in the negotiation and closing of air rights and other exotic development transactions, and in matters before the New York City Planning Commission, the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission, Community Planning Boards, and various executive and legislative bodies.
