“I have had the pleasure of hosting Deidre Hamilton at the Santa Cruz County Association of REALTORS® for a number of years.  She is a skilled and extremely knowledgeable speaker with a wealth of information to share with our membership. The classes are always full and her presentations on Land Use are excellent. It is clear she is ‘tops’ in her field and we are truly fortunate to have her participate in our Santa Cruz County Pro Classes.”

— Norma I. Milete, Member Services Director, Santa Cruz County Association of REALTORS®

" I have hired Deidre Hamilton as a land use planner on numerous occasions over the past twenty years. She is smart, articulate, straightforward and even keeled. She knows the codes and the politics in the Santa Cruz area better than just about anyone and best of all Deidre is a team player. My vote would be a one hundred percent "yes" vote for working with Deidre Hamilton.”

— Stephanie Barnes-Castro, Architect

“My wife and I hired Deidre to help us get through the permitting process for our earthen home.  Because of the unusual nature of our house we need someone with knowledge of the process to help us navigate through it.  Deidre was very professional and knows the inner working of the Planning Department like the back of her hand.  Going through the process was a lot less stressful with her help.  Her services are invaluable.”

— James Warmkessel, Property Owner
