Growth Management and Concurrency

Smart Growth Strategies for Urban and Suburban Development

Miami’s transformation into an international metropolis landlocked by precious natural resources of global significance requires a keen understanding of the tenets of growth management. Urban infill redevelopment is often limited by aging infrastructure and suburban development is often perceived as draining limited resources. The potential impact of development on infrastructure facilities including transportation, water, sewer, solid waste, parks and schools is measured through concurrency management systems. We assist our clients in strategically mitigating a project’s impact on infrastructure to effectively manage both urban and suburban growth.
