Municipal Law: Practice Profile

Clark Wilson LLP has extensive experience working with municipalities and related entities, both directly and through our work with developers, builders, contractors and landowners.

We maintain positive working relationships with planning officials in Vancouver and throughout the Greater Vancouver Regional District and major centres in the Province. Our experience with municipal law matters includes:

  • assisting landowners and developers with respect to land assembly, subdivision and servicing, as well as procuring municipal and regulatory approvals, re-zoning, easements and rights-of-way.

  • assisting municipalities, private interests and lenders with public-private partnership ventures, beginning with the proposal process, deal negotiation and structuring, and continuing through project completion and operation.

  • assisting municipalities with "partnering agreement" dissolution and project buy-back.

  • acting for public sector licensees in complex technology projects.

  • advising on construction projects, tendering, and requests for proposals.

  • enforcing by-laws, including procuring injunctions where necessary.

  • published on the topic of municipal liability for building plan approval and building inspections.
