Service Areas - Sunraysia

Your local town planning consultancy servicing the Sunraysia area

Macedon Ranges Bushfire and Planning not only provide planning consultancy services in the Macedon Ranges. We also frequently provide services to towns within the wider Sunraysia region. We provide a comprehensive range of town planning services tailored to the distinctive needs of the area.

We specialise in rural, residential, commercial, and industrial developments. We offer expert planning advice, prepare your permit applications, and the management of any conditions of permit. With experience and great working relationships with the Macedon Ranges Shire Council, Hepburn Shire Council, Mitchell Shire Council, Mount Alexander and Moorabool Shire Council we can help navigate the complex web that the planning process can be.

From pre purchase advice and heritage property assessments to subdivision applications and land use proposals, we ensure your project adheres to local provisions and achieves your vision.

We focus on really listening to what our clients need. Every project is different, and we take the time to understand your goals before recommending the best path forward.

We actively work with councils and referral authorities rather than against them. Our experience on both sides of the planning counter means we know how to present applications that address the key issues upfront, reducing delays and unnecessary back-and-forth.

We're straightforward about costs, timelines, and the likelihood of success. If a project is going to face challenges, we'll tell you early so you can make informed decisions.
