Building

If you are building or changing the way you use your building (residential or commercial) you may need a Building Permit.

Council's Building Department can provide assistance and advice to residents about construction and all related building matters in the Southern Grampians Shire.

Building permits are required to ensure the building complies with the Building Act and National Construction Code(Building Code of Australia and Plumbing Code of Australia).
