DA vs CDC: What’s Right for Your Lady Robinson Beach 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 foreshore properties or projects seeking flexibility in setbacks.

  • Necessary for duplexes, townhouses, or designs impacted by coastal overlays.

CDC (Complying Development Certificate):

  • Suitable for compliant single dwellings or renovations inland from the foreshore.

  • Allows a streamlined approval if all planning rules are met.
