  • Resumen

  • Mike Yanovitch is the former Deputy Building Commissioner of Brookline. This was a fascinating interview and Mike gives it to us straight, pulling the curtain back on how permitting and zoning work. Topics discussed include: - Why is Brookline zoning so complex? Does that inhibit building? - We ask about how the building department works. What's the best way to get feedback on plans, for example to build an addition? - Where is the institutional knowledge when there is turnover in the building inspectors? - How much of the code is open to interpretation? - Is it harder to receive permits now than in the past? Why are codes being interpreted more stringently now? - How does the town meeting style of government contribute to the complexity and difficulty of zoning? - What are some of the unintended consequences of this complexity? - How could we make it easier to build? In addition to having worked in the Brookline Building Department, Mike has also served in similar roles in Boston, Newton and Walpole. Now he is now in the private sector with Mass Construction Consultants (https://massconstruction.org/), a community where professionals in the construction industry can learn, share, and become better at what they do. Mass Construction Consultants provide corporate education, code consulting, permitting services, marketing consultations, and NFPA 241 Construction Fire Safety Plans & Audits. ***************** FEEDBACK OR QUESTIONS?
