How do we ensure complex projects that require approvals from a number of agencies are comprehensively assessed in a timely manner to ensure benefits to Queensland can be delivered more quickly? One way is by declaring a project as a ‘coordinated project’. Coordinated projects typically have complex approval requirements. They may have environmental effects, are generally of strategic economic significance, and/or have significant infrastructure requirements. These projects are then subject to a rigorous impact assessment - and that’s where the experienced team at the Office of the Coordinator-General comes in. We provide a whole-of-government coordinated approach for proponents to navigate the approvals processes and get these projects happening sooner. As part of this, the Office of the Coordinator-General also ensures that stakeholders and communities are adequately consulted to: 🔹address all environmental, cultural and social values 🔹consider existing industry and surrounding infrastructure are effectively managed and 🔹ensure all impacts are reduced or appropriately mitigated and/or offset.

Permitting in construction development is crucial for legal compliance, safety, quality assurance, environmental protection, and maintaining community standards. It ensures that projects adhere to local, state, and federal regulations, preventing legal issues and fines. Permits enforce safety standards and involve inspections to ensure work meets quality standards. They help protect the environment by assessing and mitigating negative impacts. Permitting also ensures new developments align with zoning laws and community aesthetics, preserving neighborhood integrity. At MW Enterprises LLC, we specialize in obtaining necessary permits, ensuring your construction venture is both compliant and seamless. Our commitment goes beyond project management—we prioritize the cultivation of enduring partnerships with our clients, making your construction journey not just efficient but also built on strong, lasting connections.

Today the legal provisions allowing planning authorities to prepare Masterplan Consent Areas (MCAs) came into force: - The Town and Country Planning (Masterplan Consent Areas) (Scotland) Regulations 2024   - The Masterplan Consent Area Scheme (Environmental Impact Assessment) (Scotland) Regulations 2024 and   - the Planning (Scotland) Act 2019’s provisions on MCAs    This will allow planning authorities to take a place leadership role, by proactively consenting the type and quality of development they wish to see in their areas. MCAs offer potential for a coordinated, streamlined approach to consenting, being able grant planning permission, plus roads construction, listed building and conservation area consent.    The new regulations cover the process for preparing an MCA ‘Scheme’ - the document which grants the consent(s), and ensure that EIA requirements are part of the process where applicable. Once the MCA scheme is ‘made’ (adopted) development can be brought forward without the need for a full application providing it is in line with the scheme. MCAs can support placemaking, and accelerate delivery of development plans, offer certainty by frontloading scrutiny, removing risk and streamlining consents – to provide greater confidence to investors and facilitate investment in places.       Guidance on MCAs will be published shortly. Our work to support early adopters will get fully underway in January 2025.
