Development Contributions Policy

You should know

We have reviewed public feedback on the proposed Development Contributions Policy 2025 consultation. We are now updating the policy based on the feedback you have given us. We will present the updated policy to the Governing Body on 29 May 2025 for a decision.

​Development contributions are fees charged to developers to recover a share of the cost of infrastructure for a new development.

Revenue from these charges is used for new or upgraded infrastructure for:

  • transport, footpaths, roads and intersections
  • parks and sportsgrounds
  • drainage and stormwater systems
  • community facilities.
