Applications for extending the period of time for submission of a diagram or plan of survey
In accordance with section 145A of the Planning and Development Act 2005 (PD Act), the WAPC may grant an extension of 2 years to the period for submission of a diagram or plan of survey. This enables an applicant to extend their subdivision approval period by a further 2 years.
Applications to extend the period of time are to be made via the Form 4A below and is to include:
- Evidence that the applicant has done everything that is reasonably practicable to enable the applicant to submit, and request approval of, the diagram or plan of survey within the original approval period
- Correspondence from Local Government confirming that the plan of subdivision remains consistent with the local planning framework applicable to the area covered by the plan of subdivision
Important note for applications
For an extension to be granted, the WAPC needs to be satisfied that the criteria under section 145A(4) has been met and the applicant needs to demonstrate that all efforts have been made to comply with the conditions of approval within the original subdivision approval period. This may be difficult to achieve if the Form 4A application is submitted when there is more than 6 months remaining on a 3-year approval (5 lots or less), or more than 12 months remaining on a 4-year approval (more than 5 lots). If the application is submitted earlier than this, then the WAPC may consider that the applicant has not done everything that is reasonably practicable to enable the submission, and approval, of the diagram or plan of survey, and that the remaining time within the subdivision approval period is sufficient to satisfy the outstanding conditions.
Any queries in respect to the section 145A extension of time can be directed to the Department’s Planning Support team on 6551 9909.
