DeLalla & Associates, LLC provides comprehensive site design and planning services to a variety of residential, commercial, institutional and municipal clients, starting with preparation of the initial schematic design and extending through to the completion of construction activity. We work closely with our clients to establish the design criteria for their project and evaluate site opportunities and constraints to determine the highest and best use for their property. Beginning with a thorough site analysis of the property, we evaluate the site topography, vegetative patterns, layout of existing structures and surrounding land uses and identify the environmental constraints, in order to provide a detailed review of the existing condition of the site. The next step in the design process is the preparation of a conceptual masterplan for the property incorporating both the clients’ specific program requirements for the property, as well as the existing site data. Following the master plan phase, more detailed drawings are prepared in order to obtain any municipal approvals or permits that may be needed. DeLalla & Associates, LLC provides regulatory approval services ranging from local site plan and subdivision applications, variances and wetland permits, to coordinating with state and regional agencies such as the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and the Connecticut DEP, as well as with federal agencies such as the Army Corps of Engineers for the permits required to work within sensitive environmental areas. Approval services include presentations before local boards and commissions and coordination of the approval process with federal, state and regional agencies. Once the necessary approvals are obtained we prepare construction drawings and specifications to provide the detailed documentation required to implement the project design. These documents include the preparation of detailed layout, grading, planting and lighting plans and construction details and specifications to provide the information required by the contractor to execute the design as intended. In addition, we prepare preliminary cost estimates, coordinate the bidding process, review contractor scheduling, and evaluate the work in progress during construction activities. Services also include the coordination with other design professionals including architects, engineers, surveyors, soil scientists, biologists, landscape contractors and others to provide our clients with comprehensive site planning services. |
