    • provides a summary of planning application requirements.
    • individual checklists specific to the development  in local planning schemes.
    • instructions on how to complete each information requirement.
    • assistance with each aspect of the planning permit application.
    • examples of required information and plans.
    • basic services such as obtaining a copy of title and re-writing or editing submissions.
    • integration with the local planning schemes ie to schedules, local policy related documents.
    • answer any  questions about the application process.
    • access to a Town Planner who reviews and lodges each application, usually within 24 hours.
