Town Planning
Meliora Projects is a town planning consultancy supporting development across New South Wales. We help take the stress out of planning, whether you’re testing an idea, preparing a development application, or trying to respond to council feedback without it dragging on forever.
Town planning can feel like a moving target. One detail shifts, a policy changes, a neighbour raises a concern, and suddenly the “simple” project isn’t so simple.
We provide feasibility advice, strategic planning input, and end-to-end support through approvals for residential, commercial, industrial, rural and tourism developments. We also help with stakeholder engagement and compliance, because approvals are only part of the story. Honestly, it’s the follow-through that keeps projects on track.
We work with developers, architects, designers, councils, certifiers, lawyers, project managers, community groups and landowners. There was a site once that looked perfect on paper until the constraints started stacking up and—well, you get the idea.
We keep things practical, clear, and moving, without overcomplicating what already is.
