Council Development Approvals

We are Town Planning specialists based in Sydney providing expert town planning advice and development approval consultancy services for a wide range of projects across NSW.

Council Development Approvals

A Development Application (DA) is a formal application for development approval that requires consent under the NSW Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (EP&A Act). It is usually made to your local council via the NSW Planning Portal and typically consists of council application forms, a Statement of Environmental Effects, supporting technical reports, architectural plans and a land survey.

​How Can We Help?

The planning law in NSW has been described as the most complex and challenging in Australia. Added to this is the fact that individual councils have their own sets of rules and procedures and even an experienced property developer faces significant barriers to getting developments approved by council in a smooth and timely manner.

For a typical homeowner it is an almost impossible task to find their way through the system to achieve council approval without significant delays and additional costs.

As experts in the field, we can help with all types of development that involves obtaining council approval for your development proposal.
