NISENSON CONSULTING

Welcome to Nisenson Consulting - part professional website, part information portal.  My name is Lisa Nisenson and I work in the exciting - and evolving - field of aligning water resource and land development plans, codes and action.  Please visit the pages, accessed above, to see what I can do for you and your community.  Please visit often to see what other communities are doing to improve their natural and built environments. 

Is Your Community:

• Struggling to develop stormwater ordinances that are cost-effective to write and implement?
• Facing unexpected barriers to redevelopment and smart growth as stormwater ordinance language is proposed?
• Facing comprehensive plans that seek to build compactly, but stormwater codes that are land consumptive?
• Looking for creative ways to use the new stormwater ordinances to meet several economic development, housing and environmental goals?

Your community is not alone. Across the country, communities large and small are meeting the challenge of developing policies, ordinances and long term plans to meet environmental, community and economic development goals. These tasks have only grown in number of scale with the addition of new rules to manage stormwater and develop watershed plans.

Nisenson Consulting can assist cities and counties, as well as planning firms, in developing innovative policies, program elements and model code language to support growth management, smart growth and redevelopment/revitalization efforts.
