Development Applications & Approvals

Developing your land or building is an exciting time but it can also be confusing. To assist, we’ve collated and answered common questions to help break down the process.

The Development Application process needn’t be complicated if you take it step-by-step. Learn how to lodge a DA.

Public notification is part of the assessment for some development applications and gives neighbours and interested parties a chance to view proposal details and comment on an application.

Useful information to consider before lodging your development application.

Early discussions with council will help you make informed decisions about your proposed development, and we can offer you guidance on the process.

Use the City of Adelaide online dashboards to display information about development applications lodged and assessed prior to 19 March 2021.
