What is a Section 7.12 Development Contribution formerly known as Section 94A (S94A) contributions?

Developments that lead to an increase in the local population, visitation or traffic will usually be required to pay development contributions. These contributions are known as Section 7.12 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979.

Council will invest the funds collected from development contributions to upgrade infrastructure, services, recreation and community facilities, to support the growth of developed areas.
