Understanding Section 73 for Chatswood Subdivisions
A Section 73 Compliance Certificate confirms that a developer has made the necessary arrangements with Sydney Water for water, sewer, and stormwater infrastructure.
It verifies that:
-
Adequate water supply is available for the lot.
-
Sewerage infrastructure meets the demand of the new development.
-
Developer charges and environmental levies are settled.
-
All required physical works have been constructed.
Without a Section 73 Certificate, your subdivision cannot be legally registered.
