Case studies
The work, with the numbers attached.
Real projects, real outcomes — a tabulation landed under the cap, fees that didn’t get paid, permits issued first pass. The kind of proof a builder actually trusts.
Holmes Beach, Anna Maria Island
Holmes Beach Coastal Custom Home
Landed the Living Area Ratio at 2,322.86 of a 2,323 sq ft cap — issued without a tabulation rejection.
Sarasota County
$3,000 Impact-Fee Reduction
Identified a county impact-fee reduction before plans were finalized — $3,000 the client would otherwise have paid.
Southwest Florida
$459K Parcel → $6–7M Appraised: The Entitlement Play
A raw parcel bought for $459K, entitled for roughly 100 homes, appraised at $6–7 million — before any vertical construction.
4185 Roberts Point Circle, Siesta Key
Siesta Key Elevated Custom Home — Flood Zone AE
A three-storey elevated home on a barrier-island lot in Flood Zone AE with a 7-foot base flood elevation — coordinated from drafting through structural sealing into one submittable package.
2051 Main Street, Downtown Sarasota
MainView Sarasota — 233,936 SF Entitled from the Developer’s Chair
Before Development & Growth existed, David Gizys was the developer behind MainView Sarasota — a ten-storey, 233,936-square-foot tower at 2051 Main Street, designed with SOLSTICE Planning and Architecture and awarded by AIA Tampa Bay. It is the clearest answer to why a permit consultant should have sat on the developer’s side of the table.
