Online Development Application and Planning related applications lodgement
All Development Applications and other planning related applications must be lodged with Hornsby Shire Council electronically via the NSW Planning Portal. This is an initiative of the Department of Planning, Industry and Environment, and they have established the Portal for lodgement of applications.
Hard-copy applications will no longer be accepted at Council’s Administration Building, either in person or via the mail. Council’s Customer Service Team will be happy to assist you in lodging your application via the NSW Planning Portal.
The NSW Planning Portal allows for a more convenient and environmentally friendly process for the lodgement of your application, allowing you to lodge online — anywhere, anytime.
You can now lodge the following Applications and Certificates through the NSW Planning Portal:
- Development Application
- Section 4.55 Modification Application

- Complying Development Certificates
