Description

This course introduces students to the implementation of planning objectives via the statutory development control system, with particular reference to the NSW planning system. Various development control systems are examined, based on common law, statute and policy. Considered in detail are aspects of statutory and policy planning including the nature of environmental planning instruments, the development application process, and statutory-based development assessment. Emphasis is placed on familiarising students with the practical and creative skills required by a professional planner in undertaking various tasks involved in the development assessment process.
