Go Design residential drafting services Penshurst explain the requirements of a Development Application
Here at Go Design, our experts in residential drafting services explain that a Development Application (DA) is a formal request for consent to carry out development. Our new home designers Penshurst explain that this type of Development Approval is the most common way of getting development consent in NSW.
Permits may not be required in all instances but applicants are advised to consult with the Council in the first instance to check whether the proposed activity requires a land use or building permit.
A Development Application consists of a collection of documents (including application forms, site plans, consultants’ reports and the like) and is submitted to your local Council. For some forms of development, the development application process can be swift and simple. However, for more complex applications, it can be a lengthy, time consuming and frustrating process.
There are various items which must be submitted for all Development Applications (DA). These include a completed DA form, Statement of Environmental Factors, Drawings/Plans. There is also a fee to be paid upon lodgement.
Our residential drafting consultants explain that there are a few types of development that can be particularly complex, however these generally apply to commercial and industrial, rather than residential development.
