We, a group of moteliers in Roma engaged RG Strategic for a complex town planning matter that required reviewing of past approvals and Council reports. RG Strategic provided us with a clear and detailed proposal on the strategy to undertake the review. From the time they were engaged, their Director Russell Green took personal action to engage with us and keep us informed at each step. RG Strategic were professional in their manner, keeping open the channels of communication, along with breaking down the town planner speak so we could understand all of the reports. Professional, engaging, and delivering results on time, we couldn’t have asked for more, We highly recommend for professional town planning advice, Russell and his team at RG Strategic.

I engaged Russell Green from RG Strategic to help me to obtain planning approval for a development project in a sensitive Local Government Area. Throughout the town planning application, Russell not only provided me with the expertise necessary to acquire planning consent but gave me the guidance that I needed to navigate my way through the Council’s Regulated Procedures. Russell and his team consulted with various Local Authorities, Local Members and multiple industry representatives to ensure they provided me with the highest professional level of service and the best available options for development that was essential to the success of the development project. Russell went above and beyond to assist me. I highly recommend Russell and his team to anyone seeking a successful town planning application approval.

A great big thank you to Russell Green and all the guys at RG Strategic. The result you achieved for us with our complex town planning issue was exceptional. In obtaining the approvals for our restaurant refurbishment and outside area cover we will be in a position to be able to offer our patrons a much more comfortable dining experience. It was reassuring for us to have a town planning consultant with such a complete knowledge of the food/beverage and hospitality industries as well as a thorough understanding of all the technical aspects required to meet Noosa Council's strict approvals process. I would have no hesitation in recommending Russell and the team to anyone who requires planning or compliance services, particularly food premises in the Sunshine Coast or Noosa area. Once again thanks, Russell.
