“Three years ago I started a project to get a statue to honour Ray Warren erected in Junee.  Without the help, expertise and support of Darren Hogan and his company it would not have happened.”

Darren Hogan of Hogan Planning has worked for us for the past several years on many projects at our Silverdale Farm in Avoca, Southern Highlands NSW.  Silverdale is a world class thoroughbred breeding farm which has received numerous accolades throughout the industry.  These projects included simple signage applications, alterations & additions, right through to the major projects like the 28 box Yearling Barn and Exercise Complex, which required a change to the LEP.  We recently received approval for our Farm Stay Villas, which was originally a little controversial at the time.  Each of the approvals were totally managed by Darren and achieved our goal in a timely manner, relative to the project.  Suffice to say that Darren will continue with our future projects as well.  Should you require, I would be happy to provide any specific information in support of Darren and Hogan Planning.”

Darren Hogan of Hogan Planning was instrumental in co-ordinating a team of consultants to obtain a ground breaking DA for a multi use educational farm facility at Think Big Stud at Burradoo. Think Big Stud’s proprietor Dato Tan Chin Nam has had a long term philanthropic history supporting education particularly in Australia where many members of his family have received their own education. Darren’s work brings a unique opportunity for Dato Tan to explore this interest as well as bringing benefits to the local community of the Southern Highlands“.
