We are trained negotiators that use our knowledge and communication skills to obtain agreements that will assist with the earliest approval of your project

Negotiation & Mediation

Understanding agendas and personalities and managing competing interests to reach agreements is one of our core specialities.  A fundamental element of our Proven Approach is to meet with decision makers early in the process, discuss all issues and seek ‘in principle’ support before lodging your application.

You can maximise the chances of a positive outcome of any proposal when you appoint Keen Planning early in your planning application. However, you can engage us at any stage of your planning process. Our services include the following.

  • Represent your project at mediation meetings, Council meetings and public forums.
  • Assist project team members to appraise your proposal and minimise potential objections.
  • Recommend practical solutions to maximise the success of your project.
  • Seek agreements with objectors.
  • Prepare written responses to objections.
  • Provide you with representation at Tribunal and mediation hearings.
