How to object or make a submission
Your next step if this rezoning affects you. Submissions are how the decision-maker hears from the community.
Exhibition window on record: 4 July 2025 to 15 Aug 2025. Submissions usually close at the end of exhibition, so check the source for the exact date.
- 1 Rezonings (planning proposals) are placed on public exhibition by the council or the NSW Department of Planning. Anyone can make a submission during that window.
- 2 Lodge your submission with the council, or through the NSW Planning Portal where the proposal is exhibited there. State your address, whether you support or object, and your reasons.
- 3 Submissions are public and are reported to the decision-maker. Focus on planning grounds: amenity, traffic, overshadowing, density, heritage and local character.
General information about the public submission process, not legal advice. Confirm the current process and deadlines with the council or the official source before acting.
