Do I Need Council Approval for a Home Extension?
Yes. In most cases, home extensions require both:
Development (Planning) Approval – ensures the extension complies with zoning, boundary setbacks, open space, and residential design codes- Building Approval – ensures the structure is safe and meets the National Construction Code (NCC) and the Building Act 2011
You will likely require additional documentation such as:
Certified Structural Drawings- Energy Efficiency Reports (6-star rating)
- Bushfire Attack Level (BAL) assessments (if in a bushfire-prone area)
- Sewer infrastructure approval (if building near boundaries)
