Development contributions calculations
The Development Contributions Levy (DIL) is calculated and indexed each year to ensure these levies keep pace with the escalating cost of these projects.

In basic terms the total cost of all development infrastructure is divided by the net developable area to give a DIL per developable hectare.

A net developable area form is to be submitted with the subdivision application so the DIL total can be calculated for that subdivision or relevant stage of development a DIL payment or approved credit against Works in Kind must be confirmed before we issue a Statement of Compliance.
