Episode 6 | Permits, Politics & the Price of Progress Featuring Mike Florio of LIBI [Audio]

You can build the best homes. Have the best crews. Get everything lined up.
And still… be stuck for months.

Long Island is growing—but not fast enough. And if you’ve ever wondered why it takes forever to get a permit, approve a build, or just break ground… this is the episode you need to hear.

In this episode, I sit down with Mike Florio, Government Affairs Director of the Long Island Builders Institute, to talk about the invisible roadblocks that builders, developers, and homeowners face every day. 🎙️🏗️📑

We get into zoning politics, municipal delays, NIMBYism, and the state-level policies that sound great on paper but make development nearly impossible in practice. From housing shortages to outdated infrastructure, Mike brings years of behind-the-scenes insight into what’s slowing progress—and how we can start to fix it.

Whether you're a builder, investor, contractor, or just someone who wants to see Long Island thrive, this episode is about the policies, people, and patterns that shape the future of where we live.

Welcome to Episode 6 of Marcor Studios.
Let’s pull back the curtain on the system we’re all building in.
