Water connections for new developments

Council’s Water Connections Guide provides small and medium developments with a streamlined process to completing development steps to get connected to the city’s water network.

Build safely over pipes

If you think there may be Council wastewater or stormwater pipes going through the site where you intend to build, see Building over Pipes or contact the City Waters Unit.

Managing stormwater on site

We have two helpful guides on managing stormwater on building sites and soak holes.
