Development Applications
The first step in preparing a development application is to find out about Council's development controls, policies and guidelines. You will need to know about:
Jerilderie Shire Council Development Control Plan
Relevant State environmental planning policies (SEPP)
Relevant site development controls and zoning of the property you wish to develop
Design principles, guidelines and policies
For more information about Planning or a copy of Jerilderie Shire Council Development Control Plan click here. Hard copies of the Development Control Plan (DCP) can be viewed at Jerilderie Shire Office.
The Council's Environmental Services section are a team of committed professionals with extensive expertise in building regulations and construction, planning and heritage advice. So whether you're planning your dream home, proposing to develop a site, add to a business or subdivide your land, staff at Jerilderie Shire Council can advise you at every stage of your project from design to completion. They can answer most procedural and fee enquiries over the phone, or over the counter if you call in personally. They will then refer you to the appropriate professional officers who can provide detailed advice regarding:
Relevant design guidelines and objectives
Site development constraints and guidelines
Heritage assessment criteria
Approvals required under the Local Government, Native Vegetation or Water Resources Acts
Building regulations and construction certificates
Other matters that you will need to consider when designing or preparing your proposal
On specific proposals we suggest that you make an appointment with our Development Manager for "Pre-Development discussions". Send in a sketch of your plan in advance to illustrate your ideas. This will allow us to give you more detailed advice and information regarding your proposal.
