Scoping, Planning and Committee of Adjustment
Allan has been helping me for more than a year doing design, planning and administration related to and upcoming large scale reno. The scope he was given was: first floor gut, moving stairs, roof removal and ... keep it 'cute' and like it belongs in the neighbourhood.
Allan took an enormous amount of pride and effort to ensure that the proposed house was in line with the neighbourhood (Roncesvalles) and that it met my internal goals (extra bedroom, bathroom, etc). His attention to detail is immaculate and his patience with me was impressive.
Allan completed the job (taking it to Committee of Adjustment approval) and prepared an incredibly clear document to support the application providing pictures and precedent (in previous COA decisions). Allan guided me through all steps of the journey and attended the COA meeting (which worked well as he was able to encourage the review on a day when the city's tech failed).
Allan is a fantastic communicator: clear, consistent and very reliable. I was never unaware about where we were, what was next, or what areas of risk we had. I was informed of costs at all stages and there haven't been surprises.
And, after many many months, the COA approval came through. To build we go!
