Planning FAQs - What are overlays?

Answer

Overlays operate in addition to zones. An Overlay may seek to achieve certain design and building standards for the land, including:

  • bushfire
  • environmental
  • land management
  • heritage
  • flood issues
  • parking

Not all land is subject to an overlay. If an overlay applies to a parcel of land, it may specify additional requirements in relation to subdivisions, buildings and works, vegetation removal and other matters.

You can confirm the relevant overlays at VicPlan [insert link - https://www.planning.vic.gov.au/schemes-and-amendments/planning-report-search]
