Site Investigation & Feasibility Reports
Before significant capital is committed to a site, design or construction, LPG researches the jurisdictional path ahead.

Allowable use, zoning, setbacks, parking and known site constraints.
Permit Path
Required approvals, reviewing agencies and anticipated sequencing.
Cost & Timing Intelligence
Published or agency-confirmed review information, jurisdictional fees and known approval dependencies.
Risk & Next Steps
Potential regulatory obstacles, outstanding due-diligence items and recommended next actions.

In their words
What Real Clients Say About Us
"Working with Lakey Permit Group on our Pasco County permit project was a genuinely stress-free experience. From the start, they took ownership of the entire process — coordinating plan reviews, managing communication with the county, and keeping everything on track so we didn't have to. What really stood out was the transparency: they were upfront about what their services cover, clear about timelines, and didn't ask for payment until the permit was fully approved and in our hands. That kind of integrity is rare. It's obvious this is a company built on trust and doing right by their clients. We're grateful for the support and wouldn't hesitate to work with them again."
Florida Sunrise Homes
"Lakey Permit Group made the permitting process smooth and stress-free. Their team was professional, knowledgeable, and highly responsive every step of the way. They communicated clearly, handled everything efficiently, and delivered excellent service from start to finish. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable permitting partner."
Wendy King
