Consultation has concluded

You are invited to provide input to help inform our draft Development Servicing Plans by completing a feedback form.

This consultation will be open until 11.59pm Wednesday 22 February 2023.

BACKGROUND

The development or redevelopment of land for residential, commercial, or industrial purposes creates a need for additional capacity in water supply and sewerage systems. Developer charges are up-front charges levied to recover part of the infrastructure costs incurred in servicing new developments or additions/changes to existing developments. If costs are not received through the development when the application is approved it needs to be recovered through the raising of annual charges and fees to users of the system.

Snowy Monaro Regional Council's existing Developer Servicing Plans (DSPs) were prepared before the issue of the most recent guidelines, the newest of which was prepared in 2011. Their age and that new guidelines are in place indicate they should be reviewed. Council also needs a consistent approach across the region to contributions.
