Change of Use

Change of use.

Statutory planning for the change of use of land and buildings across Victoria, from site assessment through to obtaining a planning permit and endorsed plans.

Overview

Planning advice and strategy, grounded beyond planning.

S4 is a development and project management practice, in addition to providing statutory planning services. When you engage us, you have access to people who also manage the acquisition, design, construction and funding of a range of property developments.

Every recommendation is made with the whole project in view, from the first conversation with council to the day the project is complete.

Permit and Assessment

Use, car parking and amenity.

Whether a new use requires a planning permit depends on how that use is defined in the planning scheme and on the zone applying to the land. Where a permit is required, the application is assessed with particular regard to the nature and intensity of the use, car parking and access, and its effect on the amenity of the area.

We confirm the planning position before a lease or acquisition is committed to, and prepare applications that coordinate traffic and car parking advice into a single, considered submission to the responsible authority.
