Section 7.11 contributions are the developer’s (owners) contributions to the local council.

Some councils impose Section 7.11 contributions for the development of granny flats. These can be thousands of dollars in some cases. These contributions need to be paid to council before you receive an approval for your granny flat.

Council should be contacted for a quote.

Section 7.11 contributions are not included in RESCON Builders Pty. Ltd. Pricing.
