The public notification process is not exactly the same for all applications. However, it typically includes:
- notifying on the Authority’s website
- notifying on the DA Finder+ App
- mailing letters to neighbours
- placing signage on the development site.
There are some circumstances where some notification elements may be exempt or broader consultation will be conducted.
Notification for a DA for a significant development includes a two-stage public notification process. The first being an initial 20 working day period, followed by a second 10 working day period.
For any other DA the public notification period is 15 working days.
