Step-by-Step to Development Approval in Parramatta

Here’s how our planners simplify your development planning & approval process:

05 Steps Process

Preliminary Planning Analysis

We begin by identifying the site’s zoning, land constraints, and applicable planning controls under the Parramatta Local Environmental Plan (LEP) and Development Control Plan (DCP).

Pre-Lodgement Discussions

Our team engages with Parramatta City Council to confirm documentation requirements, discuss design considerations, and address potential issues early in the process.

Preparation of Planning Documentation

We prepare comprehensive planning reports, including the Statement of Environmental Effects (SEE), planning justifications, and any required technical studies to support your application.

Lodgement and Council Review

Meliora Projects coordinates the submission through the NSW Planning Portal, manages referrals, and responds promptly to council feedback or requests for additional information.

Determination and Follow-Up

Once assessed, we assist in addressing any conditions of consent and guide you through the post-approval implementation phase.

Each stage is designed to deliver a well-considered, compliant outcome that reflects Parramatta’s planning priorities, community expectations, and development standards.
