Development Applications

New SA Planning Portal

As at 31 July 2020, all development applications must be lodged online electronically.

Online Applications through the ePlanning Portal

Along with the new planning system, a State-Wide ‘ePlanning portal’ has been rolled out.  Development applications are no longer physically lodged with Council; you (or your builder) can now upload your application online anytime via computer, phone or tablet.

You can also track and monitor the progress of a development application, pay fees and receive information and requests from accredited planning and building officers.

The e-planning portal is South Australia’s planning hub for the community for planning information, mapping programs and checklists to help determine if a development requires approval.

The renewed planning system is underpinned by the Planning, Development and Infrastructure Act 2016 and introduces a range of new tools and a 24/7 digital ePlanning system that will allow South Australians quick and easy access.
