Mackay SDA development scheme

The Mackay State Development Area Development Scheme ( 1.5 MB) is a regulatory document that controls planning and development within the Mackay SDA.

The SDA Development Scheme outlines development which is SDA assessable and SDA self-assessable. All other forms of development continue to be regulated by other authorities, which may include Mackay Regional Council, North Queensland Bulk Ports or the State Assessment and Referral Agency.

The SDA Development Assessment Process ( 601.8 KB) provides the framework for making, assessing and deciding applications and requests relating to development within the Mackay SDA.

The development scheme is supported by a Public consultation policy  ( 136.0 KB) that provides information on matters the Coordinator-General may consider when determining whether public consultation of an SDA application is required.
