Permitting Delays Cost Time. Video Can Speed Things Up.
In commercial real estate development, getting a project off the ground often depends on local approvals—zoning, planning, entitlements, environmental assessments, traffic reviews. These processes are complex, slow, and often political.
VidTech is helping developers, zoning consultants, and land use attorneys cut through the noise by providing clear, compelling video inspections that make their case—visually.
The Problem: Complex Sites, Static Presentations
Most permitting packages are packed with maps, PDFs, and static photos that do little to convey context. When developers pitch projects to city councils or planning boards, they need to show more than a site plan—they need to tell a story.
That’s where VidTech comes in.
How VidTech Supports Permitting and Entitlements
Contextualize the Property
Drone video shows how the site fits into its surroundings—adjacent uses, traffic patterns, elevation changes, easements—information that’s hard to grasp on a flat site plan.
On-Screen Labels & Overlays
We can overlay zoning boundaries, setbacks, existing utilities, road connections, and environmental buffers right into the video—giving your reviewers what they need to say “yes.”
Communicate with Non-Experts
City council members and planning commissioners may not be engineers. A well-produced video is an accessible tool that earns buy-in from both officials and the public.
Use in Hearings, Web Portals, or Staff Reports
Our videos are easily embedded into digital staff reports, public engagement websites, or shared directly with planning staff for internal review.
Use Case: Rezoning Approval in the Southeast
A developer seeking to rezone 20 acres near a mixed-use corridor used a VidTech inspection video to support their public hearing presentation. The footage highlighted traffic buffers, walkability to transit, and compatible uses nearby. The rezoning passed with unanimous approval—and without delay.
It’s Not Just About Aesthetics—It’s Strategy
Permitting delays cost real money. A drone-powered video inspection helps stakeholders visualize what you’re proposing—and why it works. It turns you from applicant to advocate.
Make Your Next Pitch Impossible to Ignore
Whether you’re seeking a rezoning, a conditional use permit, or site plan approval, schedule a demo to see how VidTech can help get your project approved faster.
