Happy New Year! After a much-needed break, the Steffan Harries team is officially back from holidays — refreshed, recharged, and ready to help you move your project forward.
Whether you’re preparing a development application, responding to a Council request for information, needing strategic advice before you buy or build, or simply trying to understand what’s possible on your site, we’re here to make the town planning process clearer and less stressful.
A Big Year Behind Us
Before we dive into what’s ahead, we want to take a moment to reflect on what we achieved last year — and say a genuine thank you to everyone who reached out, engaged us, referred a friend, or downloaded our resources.
Here’s what 2025 looked like at Steffan Harries:
- Total enquiries: 1,553
- Development applications lodged: 174
- Job engagements: 224 (including broader town planning matters)
- Online resources downloaded: 1,172 times
We’re proud of those numbers — not just because they’re big, but because they represent real people, real projects, and real progress happening across Queensland.
How We Can Help Right Now
If you’re kicking off a project for 2026, now is the perfect time to get clarity early (it can save weeks later). We can assist with:
- Development applications (from early advice through to lodgement and follow-up)
- Town planning advice and due diligence before you commit to a site
- Change applications, extensions, and general approvals support
- Council correspondence, requests, conditions, and next-step guidance
- Clear, practical written planning justification and supporting documentation
Let’s Get Moving
If you’ve been waiting until “after the holidays” to take the next step — this is your sign. We’re back at our desks and ready to help you make confident decisions, reduce uncertainty, and get traction on your approval pathway.
Get in touch to chat about your site, your idea, or where you’re stuck — and we’ll point you in the right direction.
