Expert planning permit consultants, Geelong and Victoria

The Planning Professionals principal town planner Tufan Chakir, B. Arch. M.P.D (Urban Design), R.A.I.A., R.P.I.A. (Fellow), has over four decades of experience in private practice, working as a planning application consultant in Geelong and further afield in a diverse range of industries, including caravan parks, funeral homes, medical centres, cafes, bars, pubs and restaurants, aged care facilities, supermarkets, showrooms, apartment complexes and child care facilities.

Municipal councils are responsible for supervising most development within their local government areas and their responsibility includes the approval or rejection of town planning applications. All municipalities have a dedicated planning scheme which includes the various planning-related policies, overlays and zones dictating land use and development.

Council planning departments oversee the planning scheme and it is the staff of these departments who The Planning Professionals deal with on a daily basis.

Many people will go through life without ever dealing with a planning department and most people’s encounters and dealings with planning applications and planning permits will be sporadic at best, which is part of the reason they need planning permit assistance and support from a qualified and experienced town planner.

However, The Planning Professionals are planning permit experts, providing a simplified, streamlined, efficient and timely approach to town planning and planning permits through a straightforward three-step process.
