Town Planners advise on how a proposal uses land and fits the planning controls that apply to its site. In Australia, these controls vary between state and territory systems and local councils. A town planning consultant can assess a subdivision, a change of use or an extension before detailed design begins.
Town Planners
A town planner may prepare planning documents or manage council correspondence, depending on the agreed services. Ask what the appointment includes, who will coordinate supporting reports and how council feedback will be addressed. For projects involving several consultants, establish how planning advice will inform the design and application.
Does planning approval replace building approval?
No. Planning approval concerns land use and development, while building approval covers construction requirements. Confirm which approvals apply before work starts.
What does membership of a town planners association tell me?
Ask which association the consultant belongs to and check its membership criteria directly. Also consider their experience with the type of proposal and council involved.
Who responds if council requests changes?
Confirm whether the planner’s agreed services include council correspondence and revisions to the application. Ask how additional work will be handled if the proposal changes.
