Michael Clare

Director, Planning

As the Principal Consultant for Planning at Forge Planning, Michael Clare brings a wealth of experience and a deep understanding of Western Australia’s planning landscape. With an extensive background in urban and regional planning, Michael is owner and director of Forge Planning, providing expert guidance to ensure that every project results in client success.

His collaborative approach and commitment to sustainable, practical outcomes make him an invaluable asset to our team and clients alike.

I have worked closely with Forge for a while now across a number of development sites in WA, and can genuinely say that these guys are the real deal and that Michael is extremely diligent in everything he does. He's incredibly responsive, thorough and finds ways to navigate planning policies across various local councils. I have worked with quite a few planners, and what differentiates Michael as a planner is the ability to explain more complex planning policies and solutions in a manner that is easy to understand. The Forge guys are also just easy-going and personable - would highly recommend
