Talk To Development Advisory Officer: Bayside

Bayside Council has made a significant improvement to its Development Application process and customers can now book an appointment with a Development Advisory Officer online.

Council Officers offer comprehensive guidance on various facets of the development process.

It is recommended to seek advice when planning a project as it could improve the determination timeframe and probability of approval.

Council’s free Development Advisory Service provides general planning advice, which includes:

  • Explaining the development approval process.
  • Identifying the planning controls and policies that affect your property.
  • Identifying if your proposal is classified as: exempt development, complying development, local development, requiring consent, prohibited development
  • Explaining the process of applying for approval.

This service is available from Customer Service Centres at Eastgardens and Rockdale, which are open Monday to Friday from 8.30am to4.30pm.
