To determine whether approval is required to construct a Shed, first check on the State Environmental Policy (Exempt & Complying Development Codes) 2008 to determine if the work you are proposing is exempt development. 

If you don't satisfy the set criteria, approval is required for the Shed before any work commences on site. It is always best to talk to Council in the early stages of planning to check what the requirements may be as well as checking out our information on the various types of developments or types of applications. You can call our duty planner during normal business hours for more information.
