Before starting any building works such as renovations, extensions, sheds or retaining walls, check with Council to find out if you require a Building Permit.
Building Regulations provide for siting matters. If your building project does not meet a siting requirement of the Building Regulations 2018, your Building Surveyor will ask you to obtain Council's consent before a building permit can be issued.
For a fee, any person can request property information under Regulation 51(1), (2) and (3) of the Building Regulations 2018.
Relevant Building surveyors are required to provide certain documents and information to councils related to building permits, occupancy permits and certificates of final inspection.
