Management strategy

The Council is managing potential conflicts of interest in this matter as follows:

1. The assessment of an application for council-related development:

  • An independent consultant that has not been involved in preparing or lodging the development application shall assess the application.
  • The independent consultant will remain separate from the team that lodged the development application.

2. The determination of an application for council-related development:

  • Development applications will be referred to the Willoughby Local Planning Panel or Sydney North Planning Panel for determination.

3. The regulation and enforcement of approved council-related development:

  • A private certifier will be engaged to undertake the certification of the development.
  • Publication of certificates issued under Part 6 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 on the NSW Planning Portal.
