Utility Constraints Pattern Collection
Utility constraints should be treated as a professional handoff, not a guess hidden inside a recommendation.
For data-center, industrial, energy, mixed-use, and retail teams where service timing can make or break the site.
What to check
Review service territory, public utility filings, substation records, transmission constraints, rate cases, queue timing, public opposition, and whether prior projects needed upgrades.
Why it matters
Power nearby is not power available. The memo should state what the public record supports and name the utility question that must be answered before deeper spend.
