Are you planning on renovating your property or doing a new build in Canterbury-Bankstown?
Starting 1 July 2024, the NSW Government introduced new guidelines to speed up the development application process and address the housing crisis. Here’s what you need to know:
Submitting your application on the NSW Planning Portal
To comply with the requirements, make sure your application is complete before submission. If any information is missing, the application will be returned and you will need to re-submit the entire package. To avoid this, please review your application carefully using our Planning and building application lodgement guide and checklist.
Once your application is accepted, you’ll receive an invoice that must be paid within seven calendar days.
After lodging your application
Once your application is lodged, Canterbury-Bankstown Council can no longer provide extended timeframes or multiple opportunities for changes. Please ensure your application is thoroughly prepared before submission.
By following this advice, you can help streamline the processing of your development, modification, and s8.2 review applications with Council.

The Community Participation Plan establishes how Council engages with the community in carrying out its land use planning functions such as the assessment and determination of development applications, planning proposals, development control plan amendments and contributions plans.
