@Anson Young - We made some changes to the events forums and have asked planners to create a new thead for each event, both to garner more support for the events themselves, and because old people like me can't figure it out otherwise.

Download a zoning map from your community or drop in to talk with a city planner to find out the exact zoning.

He used to be a Capacity Planner - he plays with stats too) of census data.  

Churches, event planners, fitness classes, dance companies are all potential renters.  

Your church or community center may have opportunities to mentor or teach a personal finance program to adults wanting to change the legacy of their family.Take your kid to your financial planner/broker:   After a 30 minute chat with my broker, my 18 year old daughter said "I learned more in that 30 minutes than in 4 years of high school" (on subject of money).  

@Steven Tierney one other thing to add I forgot consider having a local land planner look at the parcel to see if he can figure an angle on a possible variance.  

If there are any buyers, sellers, investors, direct lenders, financiers, mortgage and/or hard money brokers, agents, brokers, servicers, asset managers, property managers, developers, architects, contractors, appraisers, city planners or marketing companies on the site who are local please introduce yourself!

I sure know where I would have liked to invest in Cowtown and am still working on finding out what local areas here I'll invest in.Definitely find yourself a real estate savvy tax advisor or financial planner for local investment and tax information which will differ from that suggested here in the US.Good luck!

He can provide a truly unbiased opinion/consult on which products are best suited for, and have the best return/lowest risk for an individual investor.A financial planner is someone who usually is well versed in insurance products as well as other investments and financial tools.  

I've tried calling Edison and they were nice about getting me into contact with a planner from their office but no matter what she wouldn't give me numbers of estimates other than telling me it'll cost 2grand for an easement-permit fee to even come to numbers and that's about 4 to 5 months out.I'm in contract with about 10acres out there and I really have no desire to commit if getting utilites hooked up is going to end up costing way more then I expect, I know from looking at the lot I have water on the road and I have electrical poles running all along the roads north,south and east of the property, so I'm really only thinking I'll need to run about 100ft of overhead cable, does anyone know what those costs typically run?
