DA vs CDC: What’s Right for Your Neverfail Bay 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):

  • Needed for foreshore properties or environmentally sensitive sites.

  • Required for duplexes and unique designs that fall outside standard codes.

CDC (Complying Development Certificate):

  • Suitable for straightforward knockdown-rebuilds or extensions.

  • Faster approvals where requirements are strictly met.
