Services
First, our single most important goal is to provide our clients with up-to-date, innovative solutions that meet their specific and individual needs. We recognize that although many small and rural communities face similar problems, solutions must be unique to fit with the particular cultural, economic, and environmental conditions found in the community.
Our firm has contributed to a variety of projects with services such as comprehensive planning, development of zoning and other land use regulations, development of farmland protection strategies, environmental impact assessments, community involvement campaigns and grant writing. CP&EA concentrates in the special planning and environmental needs of small communities and rural areas.
CP&EA often teams with other professionals to provide communities with the full range of planning services they may need. We custom make our team based on the needs and scope of work identified in each community. Ellen Pemrick, of E. M. Pemrick and Company is an economic planning and development specialist.

We engaged Ms. Stolzenburg twice - first to help us build our Comprehensive Plan and our Zoning Ordinance. As leader of each group I worked directly with her and relied heavily on her extensive experience in community planning and on her ability to work effectively with our teams. Both projects succeeded.
