How applications are assessed

Your application is assessed against the policies set out in the West Torrens Council Development Plan. In most cases a decision is determined by Council Administration.

Application processing time frames

The time in which a decision must be made usually varies from two weeks to three months depending on the nature and complexity of the application.

For more information email the City Development Team or call 8416 6333 Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.

Appealing a decision

If you’re not happy with our decision you may be able to appeal to the Environment, Resources and Development Court. If you decide to appeal you must do so within two months of the decision.

Note: there are no rights of appeal for non-complying developments.
