Ask us to confirm if you need a planning permit

You can ask our Planning team for written advice about whether a permit is needed or not.

Before you start

Make sure you:

• Check if you need a planning permit

Prepare your information

You need to submit:

• Certificate of Title from Landata copy (dated within the last three months) with a copy of any registered covenants and/or Section 173 agreements
• summary of what you are proposing on the property.

You may also need to submit (if relevant):

• site plan showing existing conditions and proposed building and/or structure, including setbacks
• floor and elevation plan of the proposed building and/or structure - these can be hand drawn or preliminary design plans
• reports - anything you have ready such as arborist or bushfire management reports, traffic engineering assessments etc.
