Planning FAQs - I have received a Notice of Decision to grant a permit. Is that a planning permit?

Answer

No. A Notice of Decision (NOD) to grant a permit indicates that council is proposing to grant a permit when there are outstanding objections.

An objector has 28 days from the date the NOD was issued to appeal council's decision to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT). If no appeal is lodged, a Planning Permit will then be issued.

An applicant has 60 days to apply to review any of the conditions included in the proposed Planning Permit. The applicant must notify council and all objectors if they apply to VCAT to review any of the conditions of the Planning Permit.
