| Features | |
|---|---|
Custom contact email for building occupation/ completion | The Council/SPC user defined email address for building notifications will appear on the Decision Notification Form's Building Occupation/Completion section. |
Rectification decision comment field visibility | The rectification decision comment detail is now visible on the Building Notification screen for the Relevant Authority and Accredited Professional (Building Certifier). This enhancement improves the efficiency and accuracy of the rectification process by providing critical feedback to authorised personnel while maintaining confidentiality. |
Building Notification enhancements | An email notification is sent to the applicant when building consent is granted and building indemnity insurance has not yet been provided. The email advises that indemnity insurance must be provided in DAP prior to the notice of building works commencing. An applicant is required to enter a reason where they did not enter into a domestic work contract and are not exempt from holding insurance. |
Planning consent “on hold” feature | The system now allows a Planning Consent to be placed on hold after the consultation process has closed. |
| Fixes | |
Development application – application contacts | Adding or modifying an application contact (i.e. applicant, primary contact, invoice contact, or land owner), changing the contact style (e.g. individual to business), or selecting contact style 'Council' no longer resets the selected contact type. |
Development application – document date distributed | For contacts requiring postal correspondence. The entered ‘Date Distributed’ for a selected document is now saved when the document is updated. |
Development application council contacts | When 'council' is an application contact (applicant, invoice contact, primary contact, or land owner) the contact's name field now displays the name of the council in the following places:
|
Edit consent elements – purpose of the development now available | When editing planning consent elements from the application summary page, the purpose of development checkbox is now available when council is the applicant and/or land owner. |
Electronic lodgement fee – council development is not revenue raising | The Electronic Lodgement Fee (ELF) no longer automatically defaults for the second consent when the applicant and/or land owner is council and development is not revenue-raising as determined on assessing the first consent. |
Withdraw application – referral body notified | The referral body is now informed when a development application with a state government agency agreement (pre-lodgement agreement) is withdrawn. |
