About Us
Meliora Projects provides tailored town planning and development support across New South Wales. We work with people who need clarity in the planning process — developers, designers, councils, landowners — anyone trying to move a project forward without getting lost in red tape.
Town Planning & Development Support
We assist with feasibility assessments, planning advice, development applications, and social impact assessments across residential, commercial, industrial, rural and tourism projects. Some are early-stage ideas, others are halfway formed and need direction. Either way, we help shape things into something workable.
Sometimes that starts with a simple question. Sometimes it doesn’t.
Practical, Community-Minded Planning
Our approach balances technical planning requirements with real community considerations. We support stakeholder engagement, compliance matters, and the quieter parts of planning that don’t always show up on drawings. To be real with you, approvals rarely run in straight lines — we plan for that.
From Concept to Approval
Whether you need a one-off report or ongoing planning support, we stay involved for as long as the project needs it. There was one job that began as a quick feasibility review and slowly turned into months of conversations and adjustments, but anyway.
We focus on making planning feel manageable, even when it gets messy.
