During the development application, a pre-purchase or preliminary consultation can be handy to help identify potential implications before you commit to a property or invest in a development. A Preliminary consultation may also assist in the planning and design stage to ensure compliance with Council’s bushfire-related policies.

Purchasing or constructing on land that is mapped as bushfire prone may have certain restrictions when it comes to land use, building design, construction materials and cost.

Please note that a full bushfire risk assessment might still be required with the submission of a development application as this report does not replace it.
