He immediately made us feel comfortable with his familiarity <br /> with the related State and County regulations and guidelines. We always had a detailed <br /> description of the scope of the work that he was doing on our behalf.All communication and <br /> billing was clear and highly detailed. He made himself readily available for consultation over the <br /> phone,as well as making a number of trips out to Hana for in person meetings and visiting the <br /> site. <br /> In the interest of brevity, I'll just say that we had to make a number of adjustments to the <br /> original plans to finally arrive at a successful conclusion to obtaining our permit to build, and I <br /> can honestly say that we would have been lost and frustrated without Thorne's advice and <br /> guidance. <br /> Thorne's experience and understanding of the regulations, his understanding of the internal <br /> workings of the various agencies, and the personal contacts that he developed overtime <br /> proved to be extremely valuable as our project moved through the process. <br /> In closing, I would like to say that I offer my highest recommendation of Coastal Planners based <br /> on my extensive and diverse working history.The level of professionalism demonstrated <br /> throughout was exceptional. <br /> I would be happy to respond to inquiries or to provide any additional details regarding this <br /> letter. <br /> Frank Ga z i <br />
