Can I change my planning permit?

Yes you can, but it depends if your permit has been issued.

If a Planning Permit has been issued:

You can lodge a Section 72 Application to Amend a Planning Permit for significant design changes or modifications to permit conditions or what the permit allows.

You can lodge a Secondary Consent application for minor alterations to endorsed plans that form part of a Planning Permit, provided the application meets certain criteria. This can be found on the application form Secondary Consent form. If you do not meet the criteria for Secondary Consent, you will be required to lodge a Section 72 Amendment (Statutory fees apply).

Please contact our Planning Team on 1300 BCOAST (226 278) or (03) 5671 2211 to discuss your plans. Alternatively, a planner is available for assistance every Wednesday at the Wonthaggi Customer Service Centre (76 McBride Avenue, Wonthaggi) between 10am to 3pm.

If your Application is still being processed:

Lodge a Section 50/50A/57A Application to Amend an Undecided Planning Permit. If your application has already been advertised to your neighbours additional fees (40% of the original application cost) may be payable.
