Is it necessary to discuss an application with a Council officer?
Before formally submitting your DA you should visit Councils Customer Service Centre and discuss it with the Planning Duty Officer to make sure your application is adequate to submit. No prior appointment is necessary. The Planning Duty Officer is available at between 8.30am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday. For all major residential, industrial, commercial, and subdivision applications, you are encouraged to meet with Councils Pre-Lodgement Panel. The Pre-Lodgement Service is available to residents wishing to build a new house or undertake major alterations and additions to their existing house. The Pre-Lodgement Service provides prospective applicants with detailed and constructive advice from a friendly, multi-disciplinary team of Council officers and helps identify any potential problems before the lodging of the DA. A nominal fee of $110.00 is applicable for this service. If you need to meet with the Pre-Lodgement Panel, they are available between 8.30am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday.
