Medical Centre Planning Approval – Malvern Victoria

Town Planner with 10+ years working inside councils — I know what gets approved.

Opening a medical centre or dental clinic in Melbourne isn’t as simple as signing a lease.

This project in Malvern Victoria involved securing planning approval for a medical centre within a tightly controlled council environment, where zoning, car parking and healthcare use requirements needed to be carefully assessed.

The client was at risk of delays and costly redesigns — but with the right strategy, we navigated council requirements, addressed key planning concerns, and positioned the application for approval.

• Medical centre planning approval secured
• Car parking and access considerations addressed
• Council requirements tackled upfront
• Application positioned to reduce delays

The result? A clear pathway to approval — without the usual back-and-forth with council.
