Contributions plans spell out how Council will assess, collect, spend and administer developer contributions.
Examples of infrastructure that can be funded by developer contributions include new or upgraded amenities, open space, community facilities and transport infrastructure.
The contribution is based on the type, location and cost of development. Contributions are allocated to capital projects in accordance with the works schedule in the contributions plan or Voluntary Planning Agreement (VPA).

Under section 7.11 (formerly section 94) of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, contributions are typically levied on new residential and employment-generating developments, including new dwellings, secondary dwellings such as granny flats, residential flat buildings, and subdivisions.
Under section 7.12 (formerly section 94A) of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, these contributions apply where the construction cost is more than $100,000 and where section 7.11 contributions are not required.
Under section 64 of the Local Government Act 1993, these plans are levied to fund water and sewer infrastructure directly related to a development, such as treatment plants and pump stations.
A voluntary planning agreement (VPA) represents an agreement between Council and a developer in relation to a Planning Proposal or Development Application.
