Privacy Policy
Disclaimer and Privacy Policy
Canter Town Planning strives to provide clients with transparent, professional advice for navigating the planning permit application process. However, we want to advise clients of certain inherent risks associated with Planning Permit applications, and we encourage careful consideration before proceeding with the quotation and application process.
Application Disclaimer
The application for a planning permit is not always approved. Though we at Canter Town Planning strive to ensure that your project has a better chance of getting a permit, the Council may decide on some uncontrollable considerations. These factors can include:
- Political Influences: Changes in local policies or political dynamics within the Council that may impact approval outcomes.
- Community Objections: Significant opposition from local residents or community groups, which may lead to delays or refusal of the application.
- Council Discretion: Decisions by Council planning officers based on subjective assessments or interpretations of local regulations.
Canter Town Planning will assess all risks related to your application and keep you apprised of any likelihood of success. We do our best to avoid these risks with planning and communication, but clients must weigh these things before participating.
If an application is declined, an appeal or reapply might be possible. Canter Town Planning can help you explore these options including pursuing an appeal to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) if warranted.
Privacy Policy
Canter Town Planning will respect your privacy and process your personal data under Australian privacy laws. The following is how we collect, use and store your information in connection with a planning application.
- Information Collection: We collect personal information, including but not limited to your name, contact details, property information, and project specifications. This information is necessary to provide you with professional town planning services and communicate effectively regarding your application.
- Use of Information: The data we gather is used only to provide our services to you. This can include the preparation of documents, invoicing the Council and relevant authorities, reviewing your project and keeping you updated on application progress.
- Third-Party Disclosure: If required, we may disclose your details to third parties who are formally involved with your planning application – Council officers, consultants, or legal representatives if necessary. We won’t share your information with an unrelated third party unless we are required to do so by law.
- Data Security: Canter Town Planning takes reasonable precautions to safeguard your personal information from unauthorised access, disclosure, or misuse. We store your information securely and restrict access to only those employees or consultants who require it to assist with your application.
- Your Rights: You have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information at any time. Please contact us if you have concerns about your information or wish to exercise these rights.
