In just over a decade, ERA Planning and Environment has grown from a single person business to a highly respected, multi-skilled community of planning and environmental practitioners who are passionate about Tasmania and our place in the world. Our services extend across three core areas:
- Strategic and statutory planning across the land use, development, recreation and tourism sectors;
- Environmental assessments and approvals; and
- Community and stakeholder engagement.
We bring to our clients a depth of knowledge and experience, a strong professional reputation and the benefit of key networks and strategic relationships in the public and private sector. Our advice is well considered, balanced and practical.
We work collaboratively with our clients, co-consultants, the community, planning authorities, regulators and infrastructure providers to have a positive impact on our cities, towns and regions. The ERA team brings its independent advice and guidance to every project and a commitment to high quality, innovative, evidence-based solutions and shared outcomes.
Passion for place
It is part of being Tasmanian, and a core element of ERA Planning and Environment’s leadership in providing knowledgeable, skilled services to our diverse range of clients.
ERA is a multi-skilled, highly respected team of practitioners who each contribute to the consultancy’s enviable reputation.
Owner, Emma Riley, built ERA from the ground up with the clear vision of creating a values-led, knowledgeable, collaborative and engaging network of experts.
