Planning Proposals

We suggest all Planning Proposal applicants follow these steps: 

1. Appoint a planning consultant to review any proposed changes to the Local Environmental Plan planning controls you are seeking. This is highly recommended given the specialist nature of the application and they can advise what other professional input may be required.
2. Book a pre-application meeting to discuss your Planning Proposal with a North Sydney Council planner. A fee will be charged and minutes of the meeting will be sent to the applicant. 
3. Prepare a Planning Proposal which takes into consideration the DPE's LEP Making Guidelines, Council's comment at any pre-application meeting, any local planning studies, plans and documents outlined in Council's Planning Proposal Application Form, and depending upon the scope of change, an urban design report may be required to demonstrate how a compliant built form could be accommodated on the site under the proposed new controls.
4. Ensure you have owner/s consent for all properties to which the Planning Proposal relates.
5. Complete Council’s Planning Proposal Application Form.
6. Lodge your application through the NSW Planning Portal.
