Drawing Your Building Plans

 

Council is happy to accept non-commercial building plans (ie, those plans that are not put together by an architect or other suitably qaulified person).  However, there are a few stipulations that you need to take into account:

  • Plans are to be legible and to scale, as shown.
  • Plans must be in ink or clear prints. With Council using a microfilm system of recording plans and specifications, it is essential that drawings are of good quality for filming purposes. If they are not of good quality, they will not be accepted.
  • When you have a sketch plan of what you desire to build, check with the Planning Officer to ensure you are complying with the Planning Ordinances. If you talk to the staff first, delays will not usually occur and you can be advised of the steps to take for quick processing of your application.

If further information or advice is required, please telephone the number below. The Building Inspector will be happy to advise you on your proposal before an application is made. This will help to ensure that it complies with Building Code requirements when the application is lodged and will result in speedy processing of it.

TO AVOID DELAYS CHECK WITH THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT AND THE BUILDING INSPECTOR.
