GUIDELINES for Building in a Residential Area within the Mansfield Shire District

We can offer all of these services provided in the guidelines please contact our office for a quote when deciding your next building project!

RESIDENTIAL AREAS – PLANNING

Many Residential areas do not require a Planning Permit but they need to comply with the relevant policies such as the State Planning Policy Framework (SPPF), Local Planning Policy Framework (SPPF), Municipal Strategic Statement (MSS) and the local planning policies and Part 4 Building Regulations. For more information please contact our office or the planning department at the Shire.

If there is an overlay on your property and depending on the overlay a Planning Permit may be required for your project. Planning can be time consuming, prepare ahead if you require planning so you are not delayed with your building project.
