Development Application for Land Division
As the requirements for land division plans are specific, most applications for land divisions are prepared and submitted by licensed surveyors on behalf of the applicant.
Applications for land division are not lodged with the Council. The application is lodged with the Development Assessment Commission (DAC). The DAC will forward copies of the development application to various state agencies including Council, who determine what requirements they may have in respect to the proposal.
Once all conditions and requirements are met, the state agencies and the Council give a Section 51 Clearance and the DAC will issue a Certificate of Approval.
