State Significant Development Map
Council has developed an interactive map to help the community more easily identify where State Significant Developments (SSDs) are located and learn how they may affect North Sydney.
More information on SSDs is available on Council’s NSW Government housing reforms webpage.
The most detailed and up-to-date information on SSDs are available on the Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure website. A list of current SSDs in the North Sydney Local Government Area can be seen on the NSW Planning Portal- Major Projects webpage.

This interactive map is provided as a visual reference only and should not be relied upon as the official record of any application. While Council endeavours to keep the map current, users should refer to the NSW Planning Portal- Major Projects webpage for the official application record and current status of all SSDs within the North Sydney Local Government Area.
Please note that this map indicates the status of primary applications. Some applications may be subject to several modification applications. Users should refer to the NSW Planning Portal for the details of these modification applications.
