I guess if one of the ways to increase value to a property is to do renovations then sooner or later you’ll need council approval for your plans. It makes sense to be organised and professional when approaching the council.

This is another of those times when it’s going to be really important to build relationships with the people in the council offices that you’re going to be dealing with. If you can build working relationships with these people it just might help you get your plans approved quickly and easily.
