If you want to know whether development work near you has been approved, there are a couple of ways you can check.

If building is underway, check if there is a sign at the front of the property with details of the builder and principal certifier. This should include contact information for the person you can talk to about any concerns.

If you can’t see a sign, you can:

  • Check DA information using the Application Tracking tab in our Online Services Portal
  • Put in a GIPA request for details of any work that’s been approved at the property; or
  • Call us on (02) 4227 7111.

It’s important to note that any work that falls under exempt development does not need Council’s approval, and we don’t have records about exempt works.
