Council Information
Understand Your Local Requirements
Council requirements can vary depending on your location, zoning, overlays, intended use and the type of structure you're planning.
A planning permit relates primarily to what can be developed on the land and where, including considerations such as zoning, overlays and land use.
Because requirements differ between councils and states, it's important to check with your local council early in your project.
Building Permits
Understand the Approval Process
A building permit is different from a planning permit. It relates to how your structure is built and ensures the proposed construction meets applicable building, structural and safety requirements.
Depending on your project, documentation may include structural drawings, engineering information, site information and other supporting reports.
If a planning permit is required for your project, it generally needs to be obtained before the building permit can be issued.
