Application for Advice – Deemed-to-Comply Check

Certain types of development are exempt from requiring development approval under clause 61 of the Deemed Provisions. These exemptions include the construction of a new single house, or extensions and/or renovations to an existing single house that meet the ‘deemed-to-comply’ criteria of Volume 1 of the Residential Design Codes and/ or any relevant structure plan, local development plan or local planning policy.

 Applicants who are intending to either build a new single house or extend and/or renovate an existing single house can seek advice from the City via a Deemed to Comply check to confirm whether development approval is required for what they are proposing.  This is a voluntary process that only applies to single houses and extensions or renovations to existing single houses.

 A Deemed-to-Comply check must be made to the City using the correct form which is available on the LPS Regulations website along with payment of the relevant fee.
