Planning & Building

Do I need council approval?

Before you undertake any development or building works, it is a good idea to determine what kind of approvals are required.

Apply: certificates and permits

Here you'll find a list of common development-related services and applications.

Development and Building checklists

View a range of development and building application checklists to help you get all the right documentation in order before you lodge an application online.

Planning controls and strategies

Here you can access our planning guidelines, strategies, tools and development controls.

Development Applications

Information on how we can assist you with the development application process.

Construction information

Find out what's involved in the constriction and certification process.

Bushfire provisions

Specific construction standards apply in designated bush fire prone areas in NSW. Find out if your property is located on bushfire prone land.

Flooding controls

In urban areas, the management of flood-prone land remains the responsibility of local government, so we have developed floodplain risk management plans.

Plumbing and drainage

Council approval is required if you are planning to connect or disconnect from any of our sewer, stormwater or water systems.
