"Diamatrix Planning saved our business from the overzealousness of the Council's enforcement officers. My grandparents have used the site for over 25 years for vehicle storage (parking of large vehicles), and the Council wanted to close it down. Gbenga handled the matter on our behalf and applied to the Council to prove that the land has an existing use right as a vehicle store, saving the business from being closed down."
"Over the last few years, we have had Gbenga from Diamatrix Planning Consultants help us get our planning applications processed at Council. We have been very happy with his service and knowledge. He has always been prompt in his responses and provided the right advice and guidance on any issues raised by the council. I highly recommend Gbenga for any planning applications."

"We engaged Gbenga of Diamatrix Planning to assist us in obtaining a planning permit for a 24-hour gym. We were so glad we did. He was very easy to talk to, very thorough, kept us informed, and, most of all, he knew his stuff! Despite many objections from surrounding properties, our permit was granted without a hitch and much quicker than we expected. "
Small Business Owners
"Gbenga helped us lodge a VCAT appeal against unreasonable permit conditions imposed by the Council that would have made our multi-unit development project to be unviable. The matter was eventually resolved via a consent order through Gbenga’s negotiation skills. It was an absolute delight working with Gbenga -one of the best I've ever worked with. His promptness, knowledge, and professionalism are top-class."
Property developer
"We require planning approval for a licensed restaurant with a function centre. It was our first business venture, and it was quite daunting having to deal with the council. Gbenga is really knowledgeable and provided us with the details of the process straight up, so we knew exactly what to expect. Gbenga liaised with the architect, traffic engineer and landscape designer and followed up with the Council while keeping us informed. All the issues were resolved, and we obtained a permit with reasonable conditions. Gbenga took all the stress out of applying for our planning permit."
Business owners
"The council refused our application for a small church in an industrial area; Diamatrix Planning handled the appeal at VCAT with a successful outcome. The church is grateful because we had already signed a contract of sale for the property, and our inability to use the property because of the Council’s refusal would have resulted in a significant loss to the church."
