Collaborating with a shared vision of quality, future-focused developments

The Planning Collective is dedicated to making planning a stress-free and – dare we say it – enjoyable process. We take the time to work out exactly what our client’s needs, and then partner with them to get the job done. Our team is passionate about building relationships and walking alongside customers for the duration of the project. We have a long-standing working relationship with Turnstone, and were the lead planner for Warkworth North structure plan and associated private plan change request number 25 to the Auckland Unitary Plan. Plan Change 25 was one of the first private plan changes to the Auckland Unitary Plan, of reasonable scale to get through the planning process.
