Council Development Application (DA) Landscape Plans
The majority of Sydney Councils require a landscape plan be submitted as part of all Development and Building applications. New swimming pools also require a Development Application with plans and documentation submitted to council.
Space Landscape Designs are aware of the constant changes to rules and regulations for all Sydney Councils. As we regularly submit plans to council we can make sure your application is prepared in the correct manner to ensure a fast approval process.
All Councils have differing requirements, but for the most, the landscape plan or pool plans should address the following:
- Hard area and Soft area Ratios
- A Statement of Environmental Effects
- Existing trees / and vegetation to be retained or removed
- Site plan and site analysis
- Location of building footprint
- Proposed additional planting
- Indication of drainage, earthworks or excavation
- Private open space
- Elevation and Section Plans for new Swimming Pool
- Erosion and sediment control plan
- Access and amenity
- 12 month maintenance program
What Space can do for you with landscape plans for DA
Our designs are produced on AutoCAD, a program compatible with software used by Architects. This means Space Designs are able to liaise with the client's architect or home builders and request plans that can be modified for use as Landscape Plans.
Once the landscape design is finalised, Space Landscape Designs can act on the client's behalf and submit all necessary plans and paperwork to Council.
