If your building project meets the requirements for a CDC, then the process is much quicker and you will not require a Development Application (DA). A CDC combines the functions of a Development Application (DA) and a Construction Certificate (CC), and is a simpler and quicker approval process than submitting a DA. If CDC Build Cert will manage the approval process.
