Track a Development Application

To view the documentation submitted with a Development Application, or modification or review application, you can access the Development Application tracking tool.

Use the Development Application tracking tool

This tool can be used to:

  • Track the progress of a particular Development Application (or modification or review) currently under assessment
  • View the information submitted with an application to decide whether you want to make a submission to the proposal (ie. if you have received a notification letter, or viewed a site notice with the particulars of an application)
  • Find out what Development Applications have been lodged or determined by Council recently
  • View applications that have been previous lodged and determined
  • If the application was determined from 2019 onwards, the approved plans and conditions of consent associated with the development.
