What We Do

We guide you through every step of the DA process, from initial advice and preparation of planning reports to lodgement with Council. Our service ensures your application meets all relevant planning controls and is supported by clear, thorough documentation to help achieve timely approval.

We prepare your CDC application, accompanied by our CDC Planning Report to support lodgement with your certifier. Our report clearly outlines how the proposal complies with the relevant codes under the SEPP, helping to minimise requests for further information and speed up the approval process.

Preparation of a site-specific Statement of Environmental Effects assessing the project against Council planning controls, State legislation, and the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979.

If changes are needed after Development Consent is granted, we prepare and manage Section 4.55 Modification Applications to update your approval. Our service includes a detailed planning statement that addresses the nature of the changes, assesses their impact, and ensures they meet the relevant legislative requirements.

​

We undertake a detailed review of your concept plans against planning controls and legislation to determine the most appropriate approval pathway, being DA or CDC. Our advice outlines potential constraints, opportunities, and strategic considerations to help you proceed with confidence and minimise planning risk.
