Request a copy of your house plan

In preparation of submitting an Information Access – Historic Development application, please take note of the following:

  • Council is not able to provide copies of development documents without Owner Consent, unless the applicant is the current owner of the building/land.
  • Some development files may not be available from council, and the condition or quality of some documents contained therein is not guaranteed for reproduction purposes due to possible deterioration.
  • Applicable fees are payable on lodgement of your request and are non-refundable. Please refer to the Schedule of fees and charges.
  • Council reserves the right to refuse the viewing or copying of any documents due to copyright, privacy or security reasons.
  • If you are not the property owner, the owner may be notified of the request but will not be provided details of the applicant.

Just after a site plan of your property? Make sure to check out Council's how to prepare a site plan page to determine whether lodging a request is the right decision for your circumstances.
