Description

This guide is intended to provide a detailed overview of the development assessment process in accordance with the Planning, Development and Infrastructure Act 2016 (the Act).

The guide will assist the users and practitioners of the development assessment processes in the public and private sectors.

The Planning and Design Code (the Code), PlanSA Portal website and the Development Application Processing (DAP) system) are integral components in the development assessment process.

To complement these initiatives and to assist authorities in assessing applications in accordance with the Act, the Department has prepared this guide.
