Planning and Building

How can we help you today?

Viewing planning applications online

In light of changes to the Planning and Environment Act 1987, all unauthorised personal information contained in planning permit application documents and information will be redacted before being published online.

We are currently working through ensuring all current advertised planning applications are available in line with changes.

View planning applications online

If the planning application documents you require are not currently available online, you can view them at our office, 76 Royal Avenue Sandringham, from Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. Alternatively, call our Planning Department on (03) 9599 4666 for assistance.
