Retired from the City of Austin in “2020” as a Senior Planner with the Development Services Department. I have over 30+ years of experience. I started Land Status Consulting, LLC when my former customers from working with the COA started reaching out to me.

About Us
With over 30 years of hands-on experience and a career that culminated as a Senior Planner with the City of Austin’s Development Services Department, Land Status Consulting, LLC brings unmatched insight into how land status determinations truly work. After retiring in 2020, former City of Austin customers continued to reach out—seeking the same clarity, reliability, and results they trusted for decades. That demand is what inspired the creation of Land Status Consulting.
The Development Services Department has evolved significantly, and since COVID, navigating the process has become even more complex and time-consuming. We understand these changes from the inside out. Our experience allows us to anticipate challenges, streamline approvals, and position your project for success.
Land Status Consulting supports you end-to-end. We prepare and submit your Land Status Determination application with the goal of securing a Platting Exception. Our work includes detailed deed research, zoning analysis, lot size and frontage verification, and locating historical utility records. All findings are compiled into a clear, well-documented land status report.
