Developing Land & Lasting Relationships
Developing Land & Lasting Relationships
Allied Development has a track record of transforming raw land into thriving development projects on a national platform for over 20 years. Through our years of experience, we have streamlined the process—managing every twist and turn along the way, to ensure success in the most efficient way.
Land development can often be fraught with hidden surprises. With thorough due diligence practices and a wholistic knowledge of the process, Allied can overcome those obstacles and maximize returns for both landowners and stakeholders alike.
Following mutual acceptance of the contract between a landowner and Allied Development, we will begin a feasibility study. During the feasibility study, our engineering consultants will prepare layout options for the property. Allied will present the layout that maximizes the property’s potential to the presiding jurisdiction for review and comment in a Pre-Application Conference. If necessary, layout changes will be made to satisfy any of the jurisdiction’s concerns. It is through this process that Allied will solidify the property’s development potential.
Approximately
Our engineering consultants, along with the Allied Development team, will work to gather information from the site. This information, along with the layout, makes up the property’s application for development, the Land Use Application. During this time, several consultants will be attached to the project and the various types of information collected may include a Boundary Survey, Topography and Traffic Study, Vicinity/Circulation Mapping, Existing Conditions Mapping, Preliminary Utilities Plan, Preliminary Grading, Drainage and Erosion Control Plan, Storm Water Report, Landscape/Mitigation/Tree Preservation Plan, and Written Application Narrative.
Approximately
Upon receipt of the Land Use Application, the jurisdiction will evaluate the application material to ensure all items are present and attached to receive a proper review and approval. If the jurisdiction decides it needs additional information, they will request it during this time.
Approximately
Once the Land Use Application is deemed complete, the jurisdiction will work toward approval of the site, also known as the Preliminary Plat Approval. Depending on the type of project, this process may include hearings, officer review, planning commission approval and/or city council approval.

Approximately
The jurisdiction will review the Civil Engineering Plans and work with our engineers on the necessary changes. Following final approval of the plans, the jurisdiction will hold a meeting with the Allied Development team, our engineering consultants, and our construction contractors to review the project schedule and process. At this point, construction can begin.
Approximately
The steps above detail the development entitlement process prior to closing and construction. Project process may vary depending on site needs. Many require re-zoning, annexation, etc.
Contract Initiation
Following mutual acceptance of the contract between a landowner and Allied Development, we will begin a feasibility study. During the feasibility study, our engineering consultants will prepare layout options for the property. Allied will present the layout that maximizes the property’s potential to the presiding jurisdiction for review and comment in a Pre-Application Conference. If necessary, layout changes will be made to satisfy any jurisdiction concerns. It is through this process that Allied will solidify the property’s development potential.
Prepare Land Use Application

Land Use Application Complete
Upon receipt of the Land Use Application, the jurisdiction will have 30 days to deem it complete. During this period, an evaluation of the application material will take place to ensure all items are present and attached to receive a proper review and approval. If the jurisdiction decides it needs additional information, the 30-day period may begin again.
Land Use Application Approval
Once the Land Use Application is deemed complete, the jurisdiction will work toward approval of the site, also known as the Preliminary Plat Approval. Depending on the type of project, this process may include hearings, officer review, planning commission approval and/or city council approval. By law, this process must be completed within 120 days.
Prepare Engineering
After Preliminary Plat Approval, our engineering consultants will begin the project’s civil engineering. This is the project’s construction plans and includes specific locations for utilities, amenities, etc.
Engineering Approval
The jurisdiction will review the Civil Engineering Plans and work with our engineers on the necessary changes. Following final approval of the plans, the jurisdiction will hold a meeting with the Allied Development team, our engineering consultants, and our construction contractors to review the project schedule and process. At this point, construction can begin.
