The letter H for Hutson Land Planners

Duane Hutson | Owner | AICP

With over 30 years of experience in Texas land planning and development consulting, I’ve helped landowners, developers, and attorneys navigate the complex world of real estate. From right-of-way acquisitions and litigation support to land planning strategy, I focus on solutions that keep projects moving and protect my clients' interests. I’ve worked on projects across Texas, ensuring that land is used efficiently and in a way that benefits both private owners and public growth. When I’m not working on land deals, you’ll probably find me perfecting my BBQ skills. Let’s talk land (or brisket)!

Charles Dunn

With over 40 years of experience in land development and real estate consulting, I’ve worked with landowners, developers, attorneys, and government agencies across Texas. From zoning and site planning to right-of-way negotiations and litigation support, I help clients cut through the red tape and maximize their property's potential. My work has shaped everything from single-family subdivisions to major commercial developments, and I’ve even served as an expert witness in eminent domain cases. Texas land is full of possibilities—you just need the right strategy. Let’s talk land!

Shane  Schallock

With 25 years of experience in land planning, I’ve worked on projects across the U.S., but Texas is where things really get interesting. From raw land analysis to neighborhood design and site planning, I help landowners and developers turn big ideas into real places. My focus is on making the land development process smooth, strategic, and successful—because the right plan upfront saves a world of headaches down the road. When I’m not working on land projects, you’ll probably find me catching a college football game or keeping up with the latest in college sports. Let’s talk land!
