DA vs CDC: What’s Right for Your Wentworth Point Project?

Wether its a Development Application (DA) or Complying Development Certificate (CDC), we’ll help you determine the fastest and most compliant approval pathway.

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

DA (Development Application):

  • Required for apartment buildings, mixed-use projects, or any non-compliant design.

  • Necessary for developments exceeding height or FSR controls.

CDC (Complying Development Certificate):

  • Limited in high-density areas but possible for compliant small-scale works.

  • Ideal for fit-outs, internal alterations, or minor compliant extensions.
