Plan Search Application

Council holds a variety of electronic and hard copy records that relate to development applications. Prior to the 1994 Development Act, unfortunately, not all plans and documents were stored or retained by the Council, so we may not have the historical applications you are after. We normally recommend that you try to find the original owner, architect, designer, or engineer involved with the building work.

Approved available development applications for building work submitted prior to March 19, 2021, will be made available for inspection within 5–10 business days from the date of plan search registration when possible. Please note that delays may occur if files must be retrieved from off-site storage.

Although available for inspection (Development Regulations 2008, 101(4)(b)), Council is bound by the Copyright Act 1968 and may not reproduce plans or documents if to do so would be an infringement of the Act (Development Regulations 2008, 101(5)(b)(ii)).

An administrative fee of $30.00 is payable for each submission and is non-refundable regardless of search results.
