Section 10.7 Planning Certificate

Under Section 10.7 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, Waverley Council can issue a certificate providing information about planning controls or property issues relating to any piece of land within the local government area.

There are two types of Section 10.7 Planning Certificates:

• A Planning Certificate issued under Section 10.7(2) provides information about the zoning and land uses of the property, the relevant state, regional and local planning controls and other property issues such as land contamination, land acquisition, flooding or acid sulphate soils.
• A Planning Certificate issued under Section 10.7(2&5) provides all the information referred to in a Section 10.7(2) Planning Certificate above as well as additional information that Council chooses to provide such as whether the property is within the Railway corridor (SEPP Infrastructure), subject to additional permitted uses, and/or affected by site specific controls or planning controls for the minimum lot size for subdivision.

A Planning Certificate (2) cannot be upgraded to a Planning Certificate (2&5), or a (5) ordered separately - please consider your needs prior to ordering your certificate.
