Town planning

Town Planning Services

At C Consulting Engineers, we offer more than technical expertise — we provide comprehensive planning solutions that support sustainable, compliant, and community-focused development outcomes. Our dedicated town planning professionals bring over 20 years’ experience across local government, private consulting, and strategic planning roles, with a strong understanding of the legislative frameworks guiding land use and development in Queensland.

We understand the importance of local context — particularly in regional and rural areas — and work closely with clients, councils, and stakeholders to streamline planning pathways and reduce approval risks. Our team’s experience spans a wide range of project types including residential subdivisions, agricultural development, industrial and commercial projects, tourism ventures, and infrastructure planning.

Our town planning services include:

• Development application (DA) preparation and lodgement

• Material change of use (MCU) and reconfiguring a lot (RAL) applications

• Strategic planning and policy support for local governments

• Site feasibility and planning due diligence

• Planning scheme amendments and rezoning advice

• Community and stakeholder engagement

• Representation at Council meetings and appeals

By integrating town planning with our engineering, environmental and project management services, we offer clients a holistic and efficient approach that reduces delays, minimises costs, and ensures consistency from design through to approval.

Whether you’re navigating the Planning Act 2016, the State Planning Policy, or local planning schemes, our team will guide you every step of the way — with practical advice, detailed documentation, and a commitment to delivering real results.
