Pre-purchase advice to help you minimise risks and avoid costly errors

Whether you're purchasing land for development or investment, it’s important to accurately identify the opportunities or constraints that may impact your vision from coming to life.

Our pre-purchase town planning advice is tailored to suit your individual project. We offer expertise in determining development potential and development risks. We draw upon our specialist network who can provide their expertise to enable a well-rounded assessment of a site prior to purchase.

In addition to Town Planning advice, our due diligence research includes but is not limited to details on:

Sewage
Water
Stormwater
Electricity
NBN
Acoustics
Ecology
Earthworks
Geotechnicals
Traffic/Transport
Easement/Encumbrances

Obtain project feedback, before lodgement

Obtaining pre-lodgement feedback from the Council for your proposal can assist in reducing risks as a part of a due diligence strategy.

Pre-lodgement feedback can also assist with streamlining a project's assessment timeframe by helping you to obtain guidance from the decision makers before preparing costly reporting to support an application.

The time and cost of undertaking a pre-lodgement meeting is quickly offset when mid-assessment negotiations are avoided with the Council that require changes to architectural plans and supporting documentation.

The core of our business, and our specialty

With experience in both the public and private sectors, our planners understand the strategies and methods required to present your development application in its best light for Council assessment.

This skill not only ensures a faster assessment process, but it’s also critical in ensuring that the best result is achieved for your project.

Doyen’s team has a broad knowledge in town planning and the associated legislation. We also have a thorough understanding of the development approval process, as well as secure industry relationships.

This ensures our Town Planners have the tools required to deliver the best outcome for your project.

Assistance in appealing a development application decision

Doyen Town Planning provides Planning and Environment Court services on behalf of the private sector.

We assist clients with pre-trial, ‘without prejudice’ mediation and have a network of preferred consultants who we work with that can service all your needs during an appeal process.

Our key objective is to resolve issues promptly, cost effectively, and by avoiding going to trial.

Received a show cause notice and want it resolved quickly?

A Show Cause Notice or an Enforcement Notice are issued by the Council/Local Government when it is believed that an unlawful land use or activity is occurring on a site which constitutes a development offence.

Generally these notices are issued when building commences without the necessary approvals.

Disregarding these notices can result in the closure of a business, demolition of an unlawful structure, or issue of a Stop Work Order, to prevent work occurring on the site.

Being time sensitive, it’s important to consult with a team like Doyen Town Planning who can resolve the identified issues promptly to avoid further action being enforced.
