Urban and regional planners assess how land should be used and shape the policies and permissions that govern development. They review planning applications, write policy and zoning documents, and weigh housing, transport, environment, and heritage considerations against each other. The work involves a lot of evidence gathering, report writing, and public consultation, and decisions are often contested.

They investigate complaints, gather evidence, issue notices and orders, and follow cases through to compliance or prosecution. Much of the difficulty is procedural and interpersonal rather than technical.
