Local Law Compliance

Local Law & Regulatory Compliance

Staying compliant with evolving building regulations requires both technical expertise and a clear understanding of the laws that govern the built environment. RAND helps property owners, boards, and managers meet complex requirements at the city, state, and regional levels, protecting public safety, improving building performance, and avoiding costly penalties.
