You will generally need Council’s permission for new installations, and alterations or extensions to existing structures if:
- The site is on flood liable land, and the park or estate operator has been informed of this restriction
- The work will be more than one storey high, or the subfloor is 2.1 metres or more above ground level
- The work is different to the standards set out in state regulations.
You must get Council approval before doing any of the following work:
- Enclosing a carport with roller doors, solid screens, sliding doors or walls
- An extension to an existing part of a relocatable home, deck or annexe
- Fences and rigid privacy screens
- Installing rigid adjustable louvres or sliding doors to enclose an existing roofed area
- Demolition and replacement of an existing structure
- Moving an existing structure from one location to another.
Applications made after work has been done will be refused.
You can be fined, made to remove any work that was not pre-approved, or subject to legal action if you don’t follow the rules. You could even put the operator at risk of losing their permission to operate.
