Amendment C033 (Baw Baw)

Replaces the current Wildfire Management Overlay mapping with updated mapping approved through the Baw Baw Municipal Fire Prevention Committee and designated by Baw Baw Shire Council as Bushfire Prone Areas under the Building Act 1993. The changes to the Wildfire Management Overlay include the removal of the overlay from areas which have been assessed as not being wildfire prone and the inclusion of additional areas which have been identified as being wildfire prone. These changes have mainly been as a result of information available in updated mapping data but also as a result of ground truthing this data. Modifies Clause 61 by deleting maps 23WMO 30WMO 43WMO 44WMO and 47WMO and by adding a new map 38WMO.

How to object or make a submission

Your next step if this rezoning affects you. Submissions are how the decision-maker hears from the community.

  1. 1 Rezonings happen through planning scheme amendments under the Planning and Environment Act 1987. The council exhibits the amendment and invites submissions.
  2. 2 Make a written submission to the council during the exhibition period, stating whether you support or oppose the amendment and why.
  3. 3 If unresolved submissions remain, they are referred to an independent planning panel, where submitters can be heard before the council decides.

General information about the public submission process, not legal advice. Confirm the current process and deadlines with the council or the official source before acting.
