Contexto Urban Planning

Contexto has expanded its portfolio of services to include urban planning throughout San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, and Los Angeles County. The same attention to detail and customer satisfaction our customers have come to expect from Contexto in landscape design and the landscape architecture space is now available for urban planning services.


Why Plan with us?

Our mission is to provide clients peace of mind that they have an advocate on their side.

Our team speaks the same language as local governments, engineers, architects, and other natural resource professionals and stays committed to their projects until project delivery. Our expertise and experience working with local governments enable us to deliver projects promptly, saving our clients time and money.

Our urban planning department has a combined 19 years of experience working on California-based public and private projects, from large (warehouses, distribution centers, transfer stations, landfills, material recovery facilities, rail, mass transit, fixed guideway street car, solar, and wind energy) to smaller projects (cannabis, gasoline stations, contractor storage yards, mini-storage, retail, commercial, industrial, etc.).
