Retirement Housing

A SAFER SPACE SO THEY CAN ENJOY THEIR GOLDEN YEARS

Retirement housing is a special type of housing. Designed to provide care and support for our senior citizens, it requires a large number of approvals, and strict criteria must be met.

As our population ages, retirement housing is becoming more and more valuable. But with the strict health and safety requirements, finding the ideal location and available land for your new retirement housing can be a challenge. It’s not something you can easily undertake yourself.

So to ensure your project runs smoothly and efficiently, trust your retirement housing approvals to the experts.

The CIVAC team is experienced in retirement housing approvals, construction, and project management, and ensure your building plans, site, and construction process is compliant right from the start.

Our Town Planning and Project Management team manages all the paperwork for your approvals. We lodge the Development Application on your behalf, liaise with your local Council to manage approval and variations, and we’ll notify you of any conditions imposed on your property. We then work with you to prepare construction plans, ensure their compliance with the necessary Australian standards, and then help you receive your construction certificate.

Together, we’ll help you build a safe environment for your residents to enjoy their retirement in peace.

CONFIRMING YOUR LOCATION

The location of your retirement housing needs to meet legislative and regulatory requirements. You can’t just build one anywhere, and in fact, some locations aren’t zoned to accommodate aged care or retirement housing at all. If not appropriately zoned, your application would be terminated before it even has a chance.

We help you ensure that the location you’re considering is appropriate and available to build retirement housing. Our Town Planners can determine whether your plans fit with the location and character of the area, and we can even advise on other locations if your current choice is unavailable.

HOW WE HELP MAKE YOUR PROJECT A SUCCESS

BUILDING A NEW CENTRE

The space and amenity of a new retirement housing complex are both crucial in providing the best possible experience for your residents and their visiting families. But it also takes a key role in generating interest and promoting your services in the first place

We help you create the architectural plans that inform the design of your new centre. Our Registered Surveyors create a Detail and Level survey to determine the features on your new block. Once this is complete, our Architects take the drawing file and turn it into an Architectural Concept.

Once you’ve had a good look over the plans, discussed them with your Architect and Project Manager, and approved the final concept plan, we can get to work on the next steps that will see your retirement housing project come to life.

RENOVATING EXISTING BUILDINGS

If your aged care centre location already features an existing building, it’s most likely that you’ll need to renovate and make structural changes to the layout and design in order to get it up to code.

This can require separate approvals. You may even need to undertake renovations to improve the integrity and safety of the structure itself. After all, you’ve got an important duty of care on your hands.

We help obtain the approvals that ensure your required renovations, whether for usability or safety purposes, get the green light from your local Council.

MANAGING VEHICLES AND PARKING

Your residents will have their families come and visit them, so they can get busy, and therefore require extensive parking options available. Your CIVAC team can help you determine the size, shape, and flow of your car parking areas and determine how your project interacts with main roads.

Is there adequate parking for your staff? Can emergency vehicles gain safe access? Is your retirement housing going to integrate seamlessly with the current road layout, or will it create traffic blockages?

Getting the right approvals for the vehicles and onsite parking ensures your staff, residents, and their families can safely and securely access your site.
