Policy24

Digital planning and policy management for councils: one accurate plan online, for your staff and for the public.

For your council

Planning documents are long, technical and change often. Policy24 keeps them in one place, online, so the version the public reads is always the one your council has adopted.

  • Your plan, kept current. District and regional plans, planning schemes, bylaws and other policy documents, managed and published online.
  • Change with confidence. Edit safely, review, and publish when you’re ready. Every change is recorded.
  • Plan changes in the open. Proposed changes can be shown alongside the operative plan while they’re in progress.
  • Consistent from enquiry to decision. The rules people see online are the same rules your team uses to assess applications.
  • Fewer routine enquiries. People find their own answers, so your duty planners can spend time on the questions that need them.

For the public

Homeowners, buyers, builders, designers and planning consultants usually want one answer: what can I do on this property? Policy24 gets them there in a few clicks.

  • Type an address. See the property’s zones, overlays and the rules that apply.
  • Narrow it down. Choose what you want to do, such as build a dwelling or subdivide, and see the rules for that.
  • Read the plan. Browse and search the whole plan online, with defined terms explained where they appear.
  • Take it with you. Download or email a property report, or share a link that opens on the same page.
  • Any device. Works on phones and tablets as well as desktops.

Fits your council

  • Your brand

    Looks like part of your council’s website, with your own headings and labels.

  • Your website

    Runs as its own page or sits inside your existing council site.

  • Your plans

    One Policy24 can publish several plans and documents.

Policy24 shows the rules that may affect a property. It’s a guide to the plan; your council still gives formal planning advice.

We’ll show a property enquiry by address, the plan online, and how a change is published.
