Greiss Planning provides town planning services to the professionals who deliver projects across NSW — architects, builders, developers, project managers, remedial engineers and strata managers. From early feasibility through to development applications, Clause 4.6 variations, consent modifications, remedial works, rezoning and expert evidence, the focus is on clear advice, sound strategy and a practical pathway forward.

Understand what may be possible before you commit time, money or design resources, with early advice on planning controls, site constraints, approval pathways and development potential.
Strategic support for preparing, coordinating and lodging development applications, including documentation, consultant inputs, council liaison and assessment responses.
Clear, well-structured planning reports that explain the proposal, address relevant controls and support council’s assessment of the application.
Advice and documentation for modifying existing development consents, reviewing consent conditions and understanding the practical implications of an approval.
Independent planning advice and expert input for refused applications, disputed conditions, complex assessment issues and court-related planning matters.
Advice and application support for Building Information Certificate matters, including existing works, uncertain approvals, compliance issues and council correspondence.
Advice and documentation for planning proposals to amend zoning or development standards — from early feasibility and strategic justification through to council engagement and the Gateway process.
The planning side of remedial and rectification works — approval pathways, council notices and orders, Building Information Certificates and variations for older buildings that exceed today's controls.
Written requests to vary height, floor space, lot size and other development standards — framed around the current two-part test and grounded in site-specific environmental planning grounds.
Greiss Planning works alongside the professionals who design, build and manage projects — handling the planning side so the rest of the team can keep moving.
Approval strategy before the design is locked in, SEEs and Clause 4.6 requests written to match your drawings, and council managed so you can keep designing and building.
Due diligence before you buy or commit, a realistic view of programme risk, and RFIs and modifications handled without holding up delivery.
The planning side of remedial and rectification works — approval pathways, council notices, BICs and variations for older buildings.
We work directly with the architect, engineers and other consultants so the planning documents match the drawings and technical reports.
LEP and DCP compliance tables and drawing mark-ups, so non-compliances are designed and justified early rather than discovered at assessment.
Lodgement on the NSW Planning Portal, requests for information and correspondence with the assessing officer handled on your behalf — on fixed fees agreed before work starts.
