To help ensure your development application can be processed efficiently and that it complies with relevant development conditions we might ask for more information about your project or for changes to its design.

We will only communicate with the contact person nominated for the project.

You’ll have 14 days to supply information or design changes requested during the lodgement and assessment stages of DA processing.

We’ll contact you via the NSW planning portal if this is needed.

If you are unable to respond within 14 days your application may be:

  • determined based solely on what you have uploaded to date to the portal
  • returned
  • rejected.

Delays in getting back to us or multiple revisions of the application are not accepted as part the drive to streamline DA processing.

You can request a review of the decision to reject your development application within 14 days of receiving this advice.

You can withdraw your development application before it is determined via your NSW planning portal account.

Get in touch via email or phone if you need more information.

If your application is in the assessment stage you can also meet with your assessment specialist, keeping in mind that the 14 day period in which to respond still applies.

Keep up to date with the progress of your DA via your planning portal account or the DA tracker.
