Bringing a land development plan from concept to construction can be a complicated, lengthy and expensive process. Permits, approvals, zoning regulations and public scrutiny give even the most seasoned land development expert reason to cringe.

As states and regions compete to attract businesses and retain signature industries, a streamlined land development process has become a regional incentive driving business decisions. State and local business financial incentives are subject to economic trends, but a streamlined land development process is a stable incentive that businesses welcome. Our panel of experts will address and explain efforts on the state and local level to streamline the development process.

The Cumberland Area Economic Development Corporation and Society of Marketing Professional Services Central Pennsylvania join together to present a distinguished panel of experts who will address questions, concerns and more about the need and opportunities to streamline the development process.

Panelists:

• Kirk Stoner, Cumberland County Planning Department
• Dennis Puko, PA Department of Community and Economic Development
• John Mizerak, TetraTech
• Jonathan Andrews, McNees Wallace & Nurick, LLC

Sponsorship levels for this unique event are available and attached to this email.
