Planning FAQs - What is SPEAR and do I need to use it?

Answer

Licensed Land Surveyors use SPEAR to process subdivision applications on behalf of applicants.

The SPEAR system enables subdivision applications to be lodged, managed, referred and approved online.

Applicants can track the progress of their application via the Internet, from lodgement through to approval, certification and to the creation of new land titles.

This is a 'paperless' process between Council, Licensed Surveyors, Referral Authorities, VCAT and the Titles Office, which helps to save time and money for all parties involved.
