Bare Bones Movement Pilates needed a town planning consultant for our change of use application within Noosa Council zoning and requested a variety of service breakdowns and quotes. RG Strategic provided us with a sense of confidence, an all-inclusive rate, and followed through until our commercial use was granted. The ongoing communication throughout made all the difference to this process as we could focus on our business set-up while council approval was being handled by RG Strategic.

We engaged Russell and the team at RG Strategic to consult on, and submit our application for a Material Change of Use zoning on a retail project. From the outset, Russell's advice was solid and clearly based on extensive experience and knowledge. Throughout the process we were well informed and I feel the team really took the time to understand our business, our brand and our vision. The submission itself was extensive and thorough and excellently presented. While a challenging application, Russell persisted and worked tirelessly to find a solution that eventually saw our application approved. The RG Strategic team are simply the best in the business.

Russell Green from RG Strategic really helped us when it came to council approval of a location for our business, HIIT Australia. He is extremely forthcoming and easy to deal with, and his knowledge and professionalism are second to none. We recommend everyone who needs help with council applications or general town planning issues contact Russell immediately – you won’t be disappointed!!
