Canterbury-Bankstown City Council
An approval is not a home. Lodgd follows every application in Canterbury-Bankstown City Council through to what gets built.
Canterbury-Bankstown City Council determines a development application in a median of 68 days — 12 days slower than the NSW median of 56.
Measured across 540 determined development applications, last 12 months · 19,200 applications on record · 74 planning proposals · 389,687 people (2025 ABS estimate) · 117,031 occupied dwellings (2021 Census)
Housing determined since 1 July 2024
4,962 homes have been determined here
Counted from the applications that state a number of new homes. Where an application does not state one, it is not read as a zero. A home decided twice at the same address is counted once.
NSW’s housing target
NSW asks Canterbury-Bankstown City Council for 14,500 homes by June 2029.
That target counts homes finished; the homes determined here are counted from applications. A home can be approved and never built, and NSW measures the target against ABS completions data that Lodgd does not hold. The two are not a percentage of one another.
Approved is not built
Across NSW, only 57% of homes determined reach construction within two years.
Lodgd matches every application to the construction certificates that follow it, site by site, across all 128 councils — so the pipeline can be read as what is likely to exist rather than what was lodged.

Of every hundred homes NSW determines, this many have a construction certificate — building work can legally begin — within two full years.

Where another source counts differently, Lodgd publishes what is in the applications rather than adjusting to match.
