Although the documentation for development applications in Sydney may vary from council to council the concept is much the same. Development Applications aim to demonstrate the initial design concept of a building to council with varying amounts of detail in order to provide council with enough information for them to be able to decide as to whether or not the development should be approved in the area.

Depending on the local government council and your scope of works the documentation for your development application could involve more or less information. The length of time required to approve a development application can vary anywhere between three months to several years and is entirely dependent on the council and type of development which is being proposed.
