1.2.1 Background

Council will give notice in accordance with Part 1.2.2 of this DCP, to owners of land adjoining or opposite the land to which any development application relates. As a guiding principle, Council will limit neighbour notification to those adjoining properties affected by a proposal as shown in Figures 1-3 to 1-8.

Modifications to development applications under section 4.55(2) of EP&A Act will be notified for a maximum of 14 days.

Notwithstanding the requirements of this DCP, Council officers may, where it is deemed necessary, expand notification requirements and timeframes if, it would be in the public interest to do so.

It is advised that a fee is payable at the time of lodgement of a development application for both notification and advertising. The fee charged is in accordance with Council’s adopted Fees and Charges at the time of lodgement.

Note: Camden’s Community Participation Plan will come into force in December 2019, as required by EP&A Act. Notifications of DA and Modifications must comply with the Community Participation Plan once enforced.
