“YES in My Backyard”: What’s Really Happening with 10-Day Subdivisions

Dear Property Investor,

The Allan Government’s “Planning System That Says Yes In My Backyard” initiative promised faster, cheaper approvals — with 10-day subdivisions and streamlined townhouse pathways.

But how is it actually working on the ground after a few months of real-world applications?

At this meetup, we’ll unpack what’s working, what’s proving tricky, and what savvy developers are learning from early approvals.

Guest Expert: Francis Goh – Prime Land Consultants
Francis is a Licensed Surveyor and active land developer, with over a decade of experience navigating Victoria’s planning maze.
His firm, Prime Land Consultants, has already tested the VicSmart fast-track process across multiple councils — giving Francis unique insights into:
✅ What types of projects are genuinely being approved in 10 days
✅ Common pitfalls that still trigger delays or refusals
✅ How overlays, siting, and design standards are being interpreted
✅ Practical tips for property owners and developers looking to subdivide or build a second dwelling
✅ Real examples of sites that have succeeded — and why

Francis understands both the technical side and the developer’s perspective, making this a must-attend session for anyone eyeing a dual-occupancy or small-lot development in 2025–26.
