The construction process associated with major development across our city can be disruptive particularly for those people who live or work close by. While we cannot remove all of the impacts of construction, we aim to ensure negative impacts are minimised through good management processes. Find out more below.
About Construction Management Plans
A Construction Management Plan (CMP) is a document which outlines the methods to be used during the construction process to;
- minimise the amenity impact on surrounding landowners and occupiers;
- deal with relevant environmental considerations
- ensure clear communication and effective complaints management; and
- to protect City assets.
A construction management plan is required for all major projects, being those with more than 10 dwellings or 2000sqm of commercial floorspace. We may require the preparation of a CMP for other projects on a case by case basis. Where a construction management plan is required we will include this as a condition of development approval.
