AusDev Sydney Desk
The AusDev Sydney Desk files The Australian Developer's coverage of Sydney and New South Wales. Since 13 Oct 2026 it has published 96 stories, 67 of them linking a public record such as a council, court, planning or ASIC filing.
How this desk sources a story
Stories start from public records (council and state planning decisions, courts, titles and ASIC notices), data feeds, company announcements and other publications. Each story carries a label saying which, and links the primary source or the outlet that reported it. A company announcement is a lead, not proof. Technology, including AI, helps discover, organise and summarise each story, and every claim is checked against its source before it publishes.
Record sources this desk cites most: planningportal.nsw.gov.au (34), publishednotices.asic.gov.au (10), nsw.gov.au (9), caselaw.nsw.gov.au (6), planning.nsw.gov.au (3).
Standards and corrections
We check figures against the source, write our own text and use at most one short, attributed quote. To report an error, email hello@australiandeveloper.com.au with the story's URL. Corrections are noted, with their date, on the story. Full policy: how we report.
