Two registers, side by side
What is proposed here versus what is approved. These are separate government registers that nobody publishes together: the NSW Planning Portal records what people apply to build, the ABS records what is actually approved. Over the last 12 months the ABS recorded 17 dwellings approved in Cootamundra-Gundagai Regional Council worth $10M. The application pipeline is running at about 4.25× that rate. Substantially more is being proposed than approved.
