Recording - Enforcement Options for Unauthorised Building Work

Unauthorised building work, including breaches of development consent, continues to emerge across every local government area in NSW. This presentation will provide council officers with a practical overview of key enforcement tools and strategies, with reference to interesting case law decisions, including:

  • Building Information Certificates – when and how they can be used

  • Development Control Orders - the do’s and don’ts of drafting orders 

  • Land and Environment Court proceedings – seeking orders in the Land and Environment Court through Class 4 or Class 5 of the court’s jurisdiction.

Don’t miss this opportunity to strengthen your understanding of the legal pathways available to address non-compliant development in your LGA.
