Council Assessment Panel

The role of Council's Council Assessment Panel (CAP) is to make decisions on development applications presented by Council planning staff.

As required by the Planning, Development and Infrastructure Act 2016 (the Act), the Panel consists of five members, with a minimum of four independent members. In its role as planning authority, the CAP operates under the Act (and during the transition to the Act, the Development Act 1993).

CAP meetings

CAP meetings are scheduled for the 4th Tuesday of each month at the Council offices commencing 6.30pm, unless otherwise advised.

The public and media are welcome at meetings, however, there are general protocols for those wishing to observe the proceedings. Members of the gallery cannot take part in a debate at meetings, do not need to stay for the entire meeting, and may leave quietly at any time.
