Frequently asked questions
What is a Statement of Environmental Effects?
Every NSW Development Application needs a SEE — the document that walks council through how the proposal addresses the section 4.15 considerations of the EP&A Act 1979. It's the document council reads first.
Can I lodge a DA with this SEE?
Our consumer-tier SEEs are prepared and signed by Town Planning Online Pty Ltd. Most NSW councils accept these for residential and small commercial DAs. For higher-stakes lodgements (apartment RFBs, contested sites, heritage), we recommend the Application-Grade tier where a registered planner reviews and approves before delivery.
Do you cover all NSW councils?
Yes — every NSW LEP + DCP is reachable through the same framework. The AI grounds the assessment in your specific council's LEP development standards and DCP controls.
