Integrated Development

Section 91 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 states that Integrated Development (not being complying development) that, in order for it to be carried out, requires development consent from other Government agencies. Some proposals will require approvals under other legislation. Applicants need to determine whether other appovals are required and should refer to Section 91 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act to determine whether the proposal is 'integrated development'. Section 91 is reproduced for viewing or downloading below:

Approvals for integrated development are additional to the consent required from Council. Council, in most cases, cannot issue a development consent in the absence of a consent from other Statutory Authorities. Please discuss the Council requirements with either the Statutory Authorities involved or Council staff.
