development approvals

Without approvals, even the most ambitious project can be derailed. Knowing our way through the maze of red tape in the development approvals process is our specialty. We have built networks and contacts with local government to speed up what can be a time-consuming and frustrating process. The time savings we achieve are appreciated by our clients.

Our proficiency with statutory work has resulted in us providing a service to local Councils to process their planning and approvals overload. This means we can appreciate the process from both sides.

Consultation is essential with all parties affected by your project – this can include communities, councils and State Governments. hansen’s skilled negotiators understand how to unravel the red tape to achieve the right outcome for our clients.

By offering a range of skills in planning and design our team of experienced professionals are often advocates or expert witnesses at hearings before the court, tribunal or panel. We adopt an honest, fair and reasonable approach to situations of disagreement in the approvals process. We believe a win-win situation can be realised in development approval projects and aim to get results for our clients in the quickest but most beneficial way.
