Pre-Lodgement Meetings

We recommend you meet with us for formal advice if you are planning a project that is large, complex or likely to be contentious in nature. This includes:

  • Dual occupancies,  
  • Multi-residential,  
  • Mixed use development,
  • Major commercial or industrial development.

At a formal advice meeting we will:

  • Undertake a detailed review of your plans.
  • Outline any concerns or issues that may impact on the outcome of your application.
  • Suggest changes to the design that may improve the likelihood of your application getting approval.

We will provide this advice in writing after the formal advice meeting.

You can seek general advice from our Development Advisory Service if you are unsure whether you should get formal advice.

Apply for formal pre-development advice by emailing a completed application form and any relevant checklist documents to Council, and pay a fee based on the cost of the development. Contact us for more information or a quote.
