If a planning application is approved which includes DLR lands, prior to commencement of the development, the applicant must enter into an agreement with DLR for the sale of the land. 

What is the Letter of Consent Process?

  2. The Property Management team confirm ownership of the lands in question, review the Zoning as defined in the current Development Plan, and any other relevant Council policy documents.
