Michael DullensPrincipal | MCDA Collab, Consulting Design & Development Manager 
“In undertaking the subdivision of our house lot, we engaged John Viklund to provide town planning services. From initial contact John was approachable and quick to respond to our enquiries. Our project was complicated more so by being part of a body corporate. John was extremely professional, knowledgeable, reliable and efficient and this equated to significant cost savings for our project. John assisted us from the assessment to approval process, liaising with surveyors, and the GCCC. At the commencement of works our builder flagged we needed to meet flood level requirements, so we consulted with John again and he was able to formulate an alternative and more cost-effective measure which met compliance. We would highly recommend John, knowing you will be very well looked after.”
