INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this Explanatory Note is to provide guidance to
applicants on the public notification requirements under Section
53 of the Planning Act 2016 (the Act) and under the
Development Assessment Rules (the Rules). The Act and the
Rules, set out the requirements for the giving of public notice.
These guidelines quote much of the material contained within
the Act and the Rules.

If there is doubt about a particular public notification aspect, the
applicant should refer to the Act and the Rules or have the public
notice procedures undertaken by a consultant who is familiar
with the public notice requirements.

Whilst every care has been taken in preparation of this
explanatory note, ultimately it is the applicant's responsibility to
ensure that the procedures are correctly followed. Council will
not accept any responsibility for incorrect giving of public notice.
OVERVIEW OF PUBLIC NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES
(PUBLIC NOTICE)

There are three distinct tasks to be undertaken when carrying
out public notice:

1. Publishing a notice in a local newspaper.
2. Placing a notice or notices on the premises.
3. Giving notice to adjoining owners.

After the notification period has ended, the applicant must give
the assessment manager notice of compliance with the public
notice requirements.

One key aspect to note is that an application automatically
lapses if public notification does not start within 20 business
days of the completion of the relevant preceding part.
Furthermore, the application also automatically lapses if
applicant does not give the assessment manager the notice of
compliance with the public notice requirements within 10
business days from the day after the last day on which a
submission may be made.

The following is an extract from Part 4.

information request and it is not an application mentioned in
section 11.3; or

(b) the assessment manager states in the confirmation notice
that it does not intend to make an information request;
public notification must start within 20 days of the day after
the confirmation notice is given to the applicant.

(a) the applicant has advised that it does not wish to receive an
information request; and

(b) itis not an application mentioned in section 11.3; and
(c) there are referral agencies;
