Here Are Some of the Issues You’ll Face…
If you’re feeling overwhelmed or drowning in endless paperwork and compliance, you’re not alone. The planning system is complex and can be frustrating for business owners.
Putting together a wine bar application can be extremely hard and tiring and dealing with council can be a nightmare, not to mention the whole process can be very expensive in both time and money. Plus, we’re pretty sure, you have better things to do… That’s where we fit in!
It’s what we do, all day, everyday. With a team of 10+ highly knowledgeable and experienced town planners, property consultants, registered architect and draftsman we’re pretty good at what we do.
What Rules Do I Need to Comply With?
Having worked on many wine bar projects over the past 25 years common compliance rules and questions to consider are:
1.
Car parking – You have fantastic ideas for a wine bar but how will your customers get to you? Will they need to drive? If so, will you have adequate parking? Will you be seen to be placing extra burden on existing infrastructure? How do you know what is adequate? How do you get around the town planning rules?
2.
Retail sale of wine – Will wine be available for purchase by the bottle for customers wishing to take some home? A portion of your business may require separate approval to enable this, and it could make a difference in the parking requirements.
3.
Food service – Were you thinking of serving light fare, appetisers or other food? This could have an impact on the type of approval required.
4.
Hours of operation – Do you plan to be part of downtown night life? The location and type of business you are proposing could determine the hours you are permitted to operate your business.
