Pre-assessment of technical reports

This service is suitable for customers who are seeking assessment of specialist technical reports prior to lodgement of a development application.

This service is suitable for customers who are seeking assessment of specialist technical reports prior to lodgement of a development application.

Advice provided by Council will determine if the information contained in the specialist technical report is sufficient for a detailed assessment. We will advise if we need further information before you lodge your development application.

Council will provide general comments of whether the report addresses the relevant code provisions in the planning scheme. Note: any advice does not constitute an approval of the development proposal. Other assessment factors may influence the overall development outcome.

This service does not include meeting with Council officers.
