Not only were we very satisfied and impressed with the quality of work that was provided, but also the attention that you and your team paid to community comments, and special requests from council members and others. You helped the process move forward in a timely and efficient manner, with clearly documented conclusions, which is exactly what any agency, developer and community could hope for.
FirstCarbon Solutions’ staff members have always exhibited dedication to providing a comprehensive and legally defensible CEQA document that is delivered on time and within budget. Their dedication to meeting timeline goals and objectives has always been appreciated.
I just wanted to take a minute and thank you for your most excellent work on behalf of our LA Fitness project. When we had a late City mandate for three more unanticipated Planning Studies, I thought we would never gain our entitlements in time. [...] You made the rather foreboding Air Quality, Greenhouse Gas and Cultural studies (including coordination with Indian tribes) quite seamless due to your relationship with the City. Thank you, we appreciate your good work on our behalf!
FCS was very knowledgeable and helpful guiding the District through the different steps that needed to be taken as well as informed the District on how to proceed with mitigating the impacts identified in the MND. Since that time, the District has engaged FCS for additional work products, and FCS has consistently demonstrated their expertise and their responsiveness in meeting the District's needs.
