Some Recent Praise
From Clients

"Our company was working on a facility expansion in Lewiston. Part of this process entailed requesting a new TIF district and CEA be created to make the expansion more feasible. Raegan from LaRochelle Consulting was referred to us by another business associate. She thoroughly explained the TIF process, assisted us in putting together a proposal for the city, and worked with all the parties to see the project through to its successful conclusion."

Michael Runser - President, Valley Beverage

"I have worked with Raegan on several complicated municipal tax incremental financing agreements in multiple communities. Each agreement is particular to the project and the town in which the project resides. A successful application requires technical proficiency in the subject matter and a good working relationship with all parties. Raegan has both. She also has that unique set of skills that brings people together to solve problems."

Kevin Mattson - President, Mattson

"I have teamed with Raegan on various community projects related to market analysis, tax increment analysis and policy, zoning, and facilitation. Raegan is a bright, hard-working, a good listener, and a good writer. Most importantly, she understands the bottom line of community projects. The point is to achieve results, not to study an issue to death. I hope to work with her on many future projects and recommend her wholeheartedly to any client."
