The term “Land Use” encompasses a wide, although unique, area of the law, outlined by State Statutes, but truly created and implemented on the local level. Essentially, it is an attempt by local government to control the development and use of real estate located within its borders.
At Delaney & Muncey, P.C., we provide a large array of legal services in the areas of commercial and residential land use and land registration. Throughout our twenty years of service to the South Shore community, we have had the opportunity to guide many clients through the complex and often confusing maze of local permitting. We have represented clients before Conservation Commissions, Town Boards of Selectmen, Town Zoning Boards of Appeal, and Planning Boards. We have also represented clients before the Massachusetts Land Court on matters of land registration, S-Petitions and zoning appeals.
We take great efforts to fully inform our clients of every option available to them in the use and development of their real estate. Whether you wish to develop your property for commercial use, for rental property, to build your own personal residence, or even to simply put on a new addition, we will work with you and the local permit granting authorities to achieve your goal in the quickest and most cost effective manner. Our areas of practice include, but are not limited, to the following:
- Building Permitting
- Special Permitting
- Variances
- Wetlands Protection Act Permitting
- Sub-Division Approval
- Comprehensive Permitting [c. 40B]
