Development Permit for Building Works
Development Permit for Building Works

In some instances, a development permit is required for building works that are assessible under a Planning Scheme.  This type of development permit is different from a building application done by a private certifier.  A common example of a development application for building work is an extension to a Dwelling house in a residential zone that doesn't comply with all acceptable outcomes in the applicable Dwelling house code.  We have experience in preparing, lodging and managing development applications for building works assessable under a planning scheme.

Due Diligence
Due Diligence

Land use investigation and analysis is a vital part of the Due Diligence process. Perform Town Planning Due Diligence before purchasing a property, developing a property or prior to starting or moving to a new business premises.

Learn more about how Planpro can help you with a Due Diligence Report by conducting a Land Use Investigation and Site Analysis.

Pre-Lodgement Meeting
Pre-Lodgement Meeting

Pre-lodgement meeting services are offered by local councils and are a productive way to identify potential issues for a development proposal prior to lodging a formal development application.  To maximise your typically hour long Council Pre-lodgement meeting it is vital to understand the development process and all relevant parts of the planning scheme.  The professional town planning expertise at Planpro will ensure that you received the best advice prior to preparing and lodging a development application. 

Change to Development Approval
Change to Development Approval

Section 78 of the Planning Act 2016 allows for changes to approved developments that are still within their currency period.  Sometimes, for various reasons developments change.  Lodging a formal change ("minor change" or a "change") application is a fast and effective way to keep your development on track.  We have experience in preparing, lodging and managing changes to development approvals.

Extension of Development Approval
Extension of Development Approval

Section 86 of the Plannning Act 2016 allows for an extension to a current development approval.  An extension to an approval must be lodged in the approved form prior to a development permit lapsing.  We have experience in preparing, lodging and managing an extension to a development approval.

Objection to Proposed Development
Objection to Proposed Development

In accordance with Queensland State Planning legislation - the Planning Act 2016, certain types of development applications require public advertising. For many people it can be a very overwhelming task to review and understand a proposed development and prepare a properly made submission. To ensure your concerns are heard, let us use our planning expertise to prepare a properly made submission on your behalf.

Learn more about how Planpro can help you with an objection response to a proposed development.
