Find out what they have to say about working with April, Christina, and the rest of the team at Winecki Consulting, Inc.
“April is by far California’s most knowledgeable and best respected coastal planner. She’s guided the most complex permit and planning matters before the Coastal Commission with successful results. She’s a proven winner.”
“I began a search for assistance with the Coastal Commission and was referred to Ms. April Verbanac, now April Winecki. The best thing I can say is, “Thank God for April!” Her connections to the finest coastal lawyer and the top coastal lobbyist were invaluable. April alone, took over the Appeal representation, including all negotiations with the Coastal Commission Staff and introduced me to the Commission decision members. Her services were and remain, the most valued relationship that a developer can have in dealing with the California Coastal Commission. She not only talks their language, but brings to the table a soft sell approach that allows the Coastal Staff to take credit for their actions in support of her projects.”
“It’s been a pleasure working with April, she’s helped guide us through a difficult situation with the CCC. Without her support, knowledge and understanding of how to structure our agreement and achieve the best compromise possible for our community, we’d be lost.”
