DA vs CDC: What’s Right for Your Georges Hall Project?

Whether it’s a Development Application (DA) or a Complying Development Certificate (CDC), we’ll guide you in finding the fastest and most compliant approval pathway—anywhere in New South Wales.

Here’s a quick breakdown to help you understand the difference:

DA (Development Application):

  • Required for multi-dwelling developments, townhouses, or flood-affected sites.

  • Needed when seeking design variations beyond CDC allowances.

CDC (Complying Development Certificate):

  • Best for new homes, duplexes, and extensions that fully comply with council standards.

  • Allows quicker approvals for straightforward projects.
