Town Planning Services for Gordon, Killara, Turramurra, Pymble, Lindfield, Roseville and Surrounds

If you're planning a development in the Ku-ring-gai Council area, our experienced town planners can help you navigate complex controls and secure council approval. We work across all suburbs in the LGA, including Gordon, Killara, Turramurra, Pymble, Lindfield, Roseville, Wahroonga, Warrawee and St Ives.

Ku-ring-gai Council is known for its strong emphasis on heritage, landscape character, tree preservation and environmental protection.

Whether you’re building a new home, proposing a secondary dwelling, altering a heritage-listed property or submitting a change-of-use application, we prepare the documentation to support a clear, compliant proposal.

Our services include Development Applications (DAs), Statements of Environmental Effects, Clause 4.6 variation requests and Section 4.55 modifications. We understand the Ku-ring-gai LEP and DCP, and how to respond to requirements related to setbacks, floor space ratios, site coverage and bushfire risk.

We’ve helped clients gain approval for extensions in Pymble, granny flats in Lindfield, dual occupancies in Turramurra and commercial projects in Gordon. We also assist with development in conservation areas and on heavily vegetated sites where arborist input or landscape plans are required.

Our in-house team can also provide architectural drafting, meaning you’ll have plans and reports ready for submission without delays.

We take the stress out of dealing with council by offering practical, tailored advice from start to finish.
