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 Rezonings happen through planning scheme amendments under the Planning and Environment Act 1987. The council exhibits the amendment and invites submissions.
- 2 Make a written submission to the council during the exhibition period, stating whether you support or oppose the amendment and why.
- 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.
