Subdivision
Stage 1 - Planning Permit
Stage 2 - Certification
If we have issued a planning permit, an application for certification of the plan of subdivision must be submitted by a licensed land surveyor.
The application must include:
- an application form (Form 1)
- the application fee
- two copies of the plan of subdivision (A4 size)
- two A3 heavyweight copies of the plan of subdivision.
The plan of subdivision must be prepared by a licensed land surveyor.
An application for certification must be referred to the relevant authorities (e.g. water, gas, electricity, roads) to make sure the plan meets their requirements.
Once all authorities have consented to certify the plans, the plan of subdivision can be certified by Council.
Once a plan of subdivision has been certified and engineering plans have been approved, works on the subdivision can commence.
Stage 3 - Statement of Compliance
A statement of compliance will be issued once:
- your surveyor has provided a Form 23 to Council
- all planning permit conditions have been met
- all authorities have provided their consent that all their requirements have been satisfied.
Stage 4 - Lodgement
Once the certified plan of subdivision and the statement of compliance have been issued to the licensed land surveyor, the plan can be lodged with Land Victoria. This will enable the issue of new certificates of title.
