Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of projects does JHS Consulting work on?
JHS Consulting works on all types of real estate development and infrastructure projects in California, including commercial, mixed-use, residential, industrial, winery/agricultural, and public agency projects.
When should I bring in JHS Consulting?
The earlier the better. Bringing JHS Consulting in at the project conception stage allows us to help you understand the regulatory requirements, develop the right strategy, and avoid costly mistakes.
What is CEQA and why does it matter for my project?
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) is a state law that requires public agencies to identify and mitigate the significant environmental impacts of projects they approve. For most development projects in California, CEQA compliance is mandatory and can significantly affect project timelines, costs, and outcomes.
How long does the entitlement process typically take?
Entitlement timelines vary significantly depending on project complexity, jurisdiction, and the regulatory requirements involved. Simple projects may be approved in a few months, while complex projects requiring EIRs may take 2-3 years or more.
Does JHS Consulting work with public agencies?
Yes. JHS Consulting has extensive experience working with cities, counties, special districts, utility agencies, and other public agencies on infrastructure projects, environmental review programs, and development-related services.
