WARNING
Cairns Council Can Stop Works!
Save the stress…
Did you know Far North Councils can stop your project if you start earthworks without an operational works permit?
We have had owners builders and developers who come to us, seeking help because they started earthworks on their land, and their local council has halted the project, due to not having an operational works permit.
It has cost them more than six months in delays and additional costs in getting the right paperwork and council requirements for the site.
Staying on top of council requirements is crucial. You may need an operational works permit before earthworks depending on the volume of earthworks.
Additional changes to slope stability
Also you may also need a slope stability report done on the particular piece of land if the land has a slope of more than 9° (this is a state government requirement).
A lot has changed and we can help you achieve the required permits and paperwork for local government requirements.
