    Complying Development Application


      To submit a Complying Development Application, the following is required:
      • a completed COMPLYING DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION FORM (the owner's consent is required)
      • submission of plans to accompany the application
      • the appropriate fees are to be paid
      • a PROPOSED TERMITE TREATMENT FORM to be filled out (requirement of the Building Code of Australia)
      • a completed FORM 7 - this form is necessary to notify Council as to the commencement date of building work, and appoint Council as the Principal Certifying Authority if Council is to be the appointed Principal Certifying Authority. This is a requirement under the Environmental Planning & Assessment Act 1979





      Extra Requirements

      Certain applications may require additional information, copies of plans or the applicant may support the application with additional material (e.g. photographs, slides, models, etc.) which further illustrates the proposed building work.

      Council may require additional information of the proposed building work to be provided where that information is essential to the determination of the Construction Certificate Application.




      Checklists

      BUILDING CHECKLIST

      Each item of the checklist should either be addressed by written statement or on the accompanying plan. This is only a guide and Council may ask for additional information.




      Inspections

      At time of lodgement, it will be calculated how many inspections will be required for your type of building work. If further inspections are required Council will request that these be paid for prior to an inspector going on site.




      How Do You Lodge an Application?

      When submitting a Complying Development Application, go to the Reception area at Council's Administration Centre. Your Application will be given a preliminary check to see that it has been completed correctly. The application will be lodged and you will be given a receipt for the fee and a lodgement acknowledgement detailing your application for future enquiries.

      You will be notified by mail of Council's decision or if you request, this may be obtained at the reception counter when ready.

      You are advised not to sign any contract until you have received approval from Council.

      Please note that all registered owners must sign the applications. If the owner is not available, their solicitor may sign on their behalf.
