Description: Navigating the complexities of local land-use and zoning laws is critical to virtually any commercial real estate transaction as well as to the long-term flexibility and continued use and operation of a property. Zoning laws may limit the types of operations that can go on at the property. Legal issues relating to land use include easements (the right of access or other limited non-ownership interest in property) by government, utilities, and other entities, and issues relating to eminent domain. The ability of an owner or potential owner of property to obtain required permits and approvals from local planning boards, zoning boards, construction officials and other government/public entities is central to the interests of sellers, buyers, lenders, neighbors, and in some cases even competitors, all of which may take a position in the applicable proceedings. This webinar covers these topics.

This webinar is delivered in Plain English, understandable to you even if you do not have a background in the subject. It brings you into an engaging, even sometimes humorous, conversation designed to entertain as it teaches. And, it is specifically designed to be viewed as a stand-alone webinar, meaning that you do not have to view the other webinars in the series to get a lot out of it.


ABOUT THIS SERIES
Looking to strengthen and condition your cross-disciplinary skills? Develop your flexibility by increasing your familiarity with issues affecting a vast array of businesses? This series delves into cutting edge issues in dynamic fields to help the audience understand (i) the role of local land-use and zoning laws in property use and development; (ii) the reliance on credit insurance by businesses to protect against non-payment of commercial debt, (iii) the use, types and perceived benefits of employee stock ownership plans, and (iv) the complex maze employers and employees must navigate in the quest for immigrant or non-immigrant visa status for workers. These issues may present themselves in any number of contexts, regardless of how you spend most of your working hours.

As with every Financial Poise Webinar, each episode is delivered in Plain English understandable to investors, business owners, and executives without much background in these areas, yet is also valuable to attorneys, accountants, and other seasoned professionals. And, as with every Financial Poise Webinar, each episode brings you into engaging, sometimes humorous, conversations designed to entertain as it teaches. Each episode in the series is designed to be viewed independently of the other episodes, so that participants will enhance their knowledge of this area whether they attend one, some, or all episodes.
