Get permits quicker for less cost 

There are 4 x 'steps' in getting a planning permit:

​

  1. is it 'assessable development' (i.e., does it need a planning permit and why?).

  2. 'Assessment benchmarks' - identify the decision criteria - and get whatever experts and consultants are needed to get all the information needed to respond to these criteria.

  3. 'Preparing an application' - collate all the information, draft a planning report responding to the assessment criteria, complete application documents, and lodge the application.

  4. 'Post-application' - do whatever needs to be done after lodgement to get an approval as quickly as possible.​

​

This process can be made more complicated if the development is 'impact' assessable rather than 'code' assessable. ​

The amount of work your town planner does in getting a planning permit can vary depending on (a) the planning (scheme) controls - i.e., zones and overlays, etc., (b) the site's features (slope, vegetation etc,), (c) the type of development, and (d) assessment level (i.e., Code or impact assessable).
