TerraWise
Our Services and Fee Structure
Terrawise is happy to provide expert land use planning advice for a variety of application types. We offer full-service planning for minor variances, zoning amendments, consents (severances), and official plan amendments. At Terrawise, we know that deciding to undertake a land use planning application can be both stressful and costly; that's why we want to help you make an informed decision with transparent and up-front pricing, with no hidden fees.
You'll find our standard hourly rates for each type of application below. We include a Project Approval Premium to align our success with yours. Unlike traditional consultants who are paid the same regardless of outcome, our model ensures that a portion of our compensation is directly tied to securing approval for your project. This reduces your upfront financial risk while demonstrating our confidence in the strength of our planning strategy and advocacy. It also means we are fully invested in navigating challenges, addressing municipal concerns, and driving your application toward a successful outcome.
