To answer this correctly we need to know what kind of "Flächenbilanz" is meant. What is required for?

regional planning balance

Whenever permits, surfaces and authorities are mentioned in one breath, this usually refers to regional planning. The balance here probaly refers to the mix between green, agricultural, industrial and residential areas.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Stuart Dykes : You may well be right, but it could also refer to a single building project, in which case you could drop the regional. I'm not sure you can use 'balance' in this sense in English, though.

site audit

The term "site audit" refers to the results of an environmental inspection, i.e. how much pollution the company causes.

Thus: "government permits and site audits"

neutral Stuart Dykes : How do you know it refers to pollution? They may want to construct a building, in which case the "Flächenbilanz" could deal with the ratio between built and landscaped areas. I think we need more context.
