From the first sketch to the final approval, EDQ Town Planning takes the stress out of the planning permit process. We work across regional and metropolitan Victoria to prepare, lodge and manage planning permit applications for a wide range of developments.
Our team has a proven track record navigating complex overlays, zone constraints, referrals, and council policies. Whether you’re building a dwelling, undertaking a subdivision, or delivering a mixed-use development, we bring clarity, strategy and strong documentation to every application.
We manage planning permits across all project types:
We start with a clear feasibility assessment based on current planning controls, overlays, and applicable policies; helping you understand constraints and opportunities up front.
Our reports are tailored, thorough and aligned with Council requirements. We integrate site context, planning rationale and evidence-based justification to reduce delays and RFIs.
We handle all Council correspondence, referrals, public notice management and response to objections. We know what each Council expects, and how to keep things moving.
Many applications require approval from multiple authorities (e.g. CFA, Melbourne Water, CHW, DoT). We coordinate the full submission process and support with referrals and responses.
We remain engaged throughout the application, from RFI responses to revised plans and conditions negotiation. If required, we can represent you at Council meetings or VCAT.
Whether you’re just getting started or have already received a Request for Further Information (RFI), we’re here to help. Get in touch for upfront advice or a no-obligation proposal.
