New roadmap paves the way for smoother approvals
13 July 2026
From bright idea to open for business – now mapped out in one place.
Approvals can feel daunting when you're starting out. Planning, building, health and operating approvals often involve different teams, different legislation and different timeframes, so it's not always obvious where to begin or what applies to you.
That's why we've launched the Business Approvals Roadmap, a single interactive guide covering:
- A clear, step-by-step view of the planning, building, health and operating approvals journey
- Help identifying which approvals apply to your business, including where to get free pre-lodgement advice
- Direct links to the right forms, guides and lodgement pages
- Indicative fees and timeframes for each approval type
- How to track your application online.
It's a fully interactive PDF with live links, allowing you to click through to exactly what you need.
Whether you're opening your first business or investing in the City of Stirling, this roadmap is here to help.
