An online account will need to be created in order to ‘lodge an application’ for developments and/or improvements at home or for properties at different locations. The creation of an online account will enable you to track the progress of the development application through the development approval process and complete the actions such as ‘make a payment’ or ‘upload requested documentation’.
To set-up an online account there are 3 stages to complete:
- Complete online account registration
