Additional information you need to know
If you’re application is in relation to subdividing your land, there are a few conditions you need to meet before you can request clearance from the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) or complete your built strata development. If we have asked you to apply for a new connection in order to meet our condition(s), it’s handy for us to know if it’s linked to a subdivision so we can collate all the right information to ensure the right checks and balances are undertaken.
What to include with your application
A site plan
Provides us with an understanding of your work site, the location of existing and new assets and help us to design your product. It will need to include:
- Your property
- Neighbouring properties
- The location of the supply point
Site photos
Help us understand your current connection arrangements and more easily identify potential site-specific issues. Photos will need to include:
- The extent of the worksite
- Any obstructions in the area
Neighbours authority
If your project will impact your neighbour’s property by having new assets installed or relocated on or in front of their property, you’ll need their authorisation.
A CAD plan
A CAD plan helps us better understand your work site and location of assets. We extract data from your plan to assist us with your design.

FAQs
You will be charged a design fee upon lodging your application.
Once your project proceeds to construction phase the design fee, excluding GST, is deducted from the price on your Access Offer and Acceptance.
Sometimes your circumstances change and you may need to cancel or change the information within your application after you have submitted it to us.
If you wish to change the scope of work in your application we will first review the change and then either:
- continue the project with the variation and invoice you for any additional materials, design work and remobilisation costs incurred. We will typically only take this approach when the change is very minor.
or
- if the change is significant we will cancel your project. You will need to submit a new application with your new requirements.
For cancelled applications we will invoice you for the costs incurred up to the point of cancellation (time and materials). If construction work has already commenced we will refund the difference from your access offer less any costs incurred.
