Real Estate Addicts

Zoning and land use attorney Marc LaCasse joins us to discus his 30+ year career in law and how he’s built an extremely successful boutique practice focused on real estate law and zoning in the City of Boston. We talk about how the permitting and entitlement process generally works around the country and Marc explains why the word “entitlement” isn’t often used in Boston. We debate the pros and cons of a vague and uncertain zoning process and the hosts take different sides on whether a more transparent process would be in developers favor. In addition, we discuss how zoning differs from state to state.
