Official description
Description
The Sustainable Development Checklist was created to promote sustainable land use and building design through the development approval process. It aims to help residents, builders and developers consider development projects that:
- support the well-being of the community;
- respect the natural environment; and
- use less resources and money to operate.
This action involves a review of the current checklist and consideration of approaches to better encourage sustainable, resilient and zero-carbon development.
