Building and Planning
South Australia’s new planning system is now operational for the District Council of Robe allowing development applications to be submitted and tracked online via Australia’s first state wide ePlanning platform. The platform brings together the PlanSA portal, the online Planning and Design Code, the South Australian Property and Planning Atlas and the electronic Development Application Processing system.
The new planning system delivers clear and consistent planning policies across the entire state of South Australia that are easily accessible and widely available.
Access the new planning system at www.plan.sa.gov.au
The PlanSA website provides the entry point to the ePlanning system for South Australia and will help you to:
- Search zoning for your property
- Find out if you need development approval
- Review development rules
- Lodge and track an application online
- Track major projects and development activity
- Find an accredited professional
- Access online planning policy and spatial map information
- Receive decision notices electronically – and get faster approvals
To use the PlanSA lodgement system, you will first need to register for an online account.
If you are still wanting to lodge your development application by email, post or in person, an additional $83 processing fee may be charged for uploading the development application into the planning system on your behalf. If you are lodging by email, post or in person at the Council office, you will also need to download and print the statutory forms from PlanSA and complete them as an attachment to your application. All forms are available at https://plan.sa.gov.au/resources/forms
