Pre-lodgement meetings
Council offers a free service for developers where they can attend pre-lodgement meetings with senior Council development staff who are also decision makers.
This pre-lodgement meeting service provides an opportunity for a prospective applicant to meet with Council’s senior development staff, providing high-level advice in order to identify and resolve assessment matters associated with a proposed development prior to lodgement of a development application.
This pre-lodgement meeting service will assist applicants in preparing a well-made development application and help to streamline the development assessment process.
More information regarding this pre-lodgement meeting service can be viewed in the Factsheet – Pre-lodgement meetings(PDF, 668KB) .
Please note: While Council will endeavour to provide pertinent advice through pre-lodgement meetings, this advice does not derogate Council’s responsibility for assessing development applications. For this reason, Council recommends that any prospective developer also seeks advice from a development consultant.
