DEVELOPING IN CANTERBURY-BANKSTOWN
Development within Canterbury-Bankstown is influenced by a combination of local planning controls, established neighbourhood character, increasing residential density and the diverse residential, commercial and industrial character of the area.
Depending on the location and nature of the proposal, development may require consideration of zoning, building height and floor space ratio, setbacks, landscaped area, heritage, privacy and overlooking, traffic and parking, flooding and stormwater, as well as the relationship between new development and surrounding properties. Higher-density, mixed-use and commercial projects can involve additional considerations relating to built form, access, amenity and infrastructure.
Understanding these considerations early can help identify potential planning issues, inform the design process and establish a clearer pathway for a Development Application.
Some of the issues we regularly consider include:
