Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions
How fast can I get my approval?

With Planna, you can get your Development Application package ready for submission within 48 hours; council assessment times vary.

Why not use a traditional town planning firm?

Planna is on average 80% cheaper than traditional town planners, with the same outcome. Most firms will charge you thousands for admin, when you really only need the core deliverables.

What are the chances of approval?

With a 98% approval rate, we ensure your reports will meet all council requirements. If the council does request additional information, we can easily update this through the dashboard.

What if I need more hands-on support?

Our team of expert planners and ex council officers are on hand to provide support, justifications and report reviews throughout the process.
