Electronic Housing Code


The Electronic Housing Code (EHC) is an online system that allows users to investigate, prepare, lodge and track development applications.   Users will enjoy a process that’s fast, standardised, paperless and available night and day.

Bellingen Shire Council is proud to offer its residents this great resource. The Council became involved in this initiative in order to provide residents and industry with a modern and efficient alternative to the conventional process of paper based development assessment. The EHC also acts as a valuable tool to undertake preliminary investigations into possible developments, reducing the need to contact Council for specific advice.
