Conservation Plans
Environmental issues coming to the forefront of political debate and action has generated the need for increasing documentation of conservation efforts. Every year more local, state, and federal agencies require permits for everything from land disturbance to tree trimming and removal.
Unlike landscape plans, conservation plans are a document containing text or other supporting materials that describe existing vegetation and site conditions while proposing improvements to a property. Several local governments, such as the Walworth County Land Use and Resource Management Department, require such documents that permit vegetation removal projects near the shoreline.

Permitting
Almost every type of improvement project needs a permit to commence. Obtaining a permit seems like a daunting task often requiring scaled drawings, detailed legal information about the property, and a completed application form. While most permit applications come with a comprehensive set of instructions, missing one component can delay issuance of the permit.
Our experience and familiarity with permitting procedures helps expedite the process. Creative Edge Landscapes in partnership with Dave Meyer, owner of Wetland & Waterway Consulting, LLC. Have successfully filed permits for projects with varying degrees of complexity.
