Council Planning

The approval process

SA Planning Assist

Building a tiny home in South Australia requires planning and development approval from your local council. The process covers siting, zoning, stormwater, wastewater, and building certification.

We’ve partnered with SA Planning Assist to handle this for our clients. Steve Tillbrook, the principal planner, works directly with Aspire buyers to navigate the approval process from start to finish. His team includes stormwater engineers, wastewater engineers, and building certifiers, so everything is managed in one place.
