Due Diligence/Initial Discussion 

If you are planning to start a business, move your business into an existing building, build or remodel a structure, subdivide land, or undertake any type of construction or land development, we recommend scheduling a due diligence/initial discussion meeting with a planner. This meeting will allow us to review your proposal and determine its viability according to Garden City zoning regulations.
