Vice President Sharp Healthcare
" Terry is a key factor in the success of many of Sharp HealthCare’s projects. Terry has worked with us on a Cancer Center, a Master Plan, a major 770 stall parking structure, a medical office building and most recently on a new $239M hospital expansion. As a member of each project’s Design Build team, it was Terry’s job to manage the interface with local government and special districts on all required permits. We consistently achieve our fast track schedules, because Terry is “best-of-class” in securing entitlements. "

“We all know how challenging the entitlement/permitting process can be. Terry Strom recently expedited two parking variances for me with the County. He cut the timing anticipated for my clients in half with his connections, persistence and follow up and saved them a great deal of money. I highly recommend Terry!!”
