t is important to understand your rights and obligations under the law prior to commencing any development project. A lawyer can help clarify important issues such as:
- planning and zoning issues;
- correct identification of the property; and
- compliance with the relevant laws.
A lawyer can assist if your development application is rejected or your modification of a development application is rejected. There are strict review processes and time restrictions that must be complied with. In NSW the review process includes appealing to the NSW Land and Environment Court or to a council appointed review panel.
