Planning Consent
Fri, 17 Jun 2011 12:22:51 WST by , 6516 views
In many circumstances before development or other proposals proceed, Planning Consent is required from the Shire to ensure that Local and State Government policy is adhered to.
Whether you are looking to construct a shed, make a modification to a heritage listed house or start a home business, many situations require Planning Consent. In some circumstances, Greater Bunbury Region Scheme (GBRS) Approval may also be required as part of State Government requirements, depending on the nature, scale or location of the proposal.
To determine whether you require Planning Consent for a certain proposal or development, please see the information sheets below. This will provide you with a guide as to what forms of development and proposals require Planning Consent.
Do I Need Planning Consent/GBRS Approval?
Fri, 17 Jun 2011 13:18:11 WST by , 6536 views
Many developments within the Shire require Planning Consent. However, developments are not the only cases requiring Planning Consent. Proposals such as establishing and running a day care, commercial or private stables, running a business from home and indeed many other operations require Planning Consent to ensure that the most appropriate outcomes are achieved for a location.
The Shire of Harvey’s Planning Department is tasked to ensure that any potential issues are mitigated or reduced before development or alterations take place. As such, the appropriate avenue taken to assess a proposal is through lodging an Application for Planning Consent.
In some circumstances Planning Consent is not required and a proposal may require only a Building or Health Permit. If you are unsure, please see the Information Sheet below or contact the Shire’s Planning Department for more information.
Please see the Information Sheets below for more details.
Places of Landscape Value
Fri, 17 Jun 2011 13:21:05 WST by , 6547 views
The Places of Landscape Value are considered by the Shire of Harvey to be of great scenic value and it is intended that these places should be retained to a state acceptable to the Council.
Properties that fall within the Places of Landscape Value are required by District Planning Scheme No. 1 to gain Planning Consent prior to any form of development taking place. This is to ensure that the most appropriate outcomes are achieved in retaining such landscapes and enhancing them.
Please see the map below to find out whether your property is included within the Designated Places of Landscape Value.
Applying for Planning Consent
Fri, 17 Jun 2011 13:21:55 WST by , 6451 views
Different proposals and developments that require Planning Consent will be assessed against various Council and State Government policy. To effectively allow the Shire’s Planning Department to assess an application, a number of items need to be addressed before an Application for Planning Consent is lodged.
The items that need to be included within an application vary on a case by case basis but generally require a scaled site plan, a completed application form and in some cases may require a cover letter and additional information to be submitted, either at the time of submission or as requested. A fee must also be paid when an Application is lodged.

Complying with Planning Consent
Fri, 17 Jun 2011 13:22:41 WST by , 6565 views
If an Application for Planning Consent is lodged and consent granted subject to conditions, compliance must be adhered to regarding all conditions stated on the approval letter. In most cases, Planning Consent is granted for two years and failure to commence or complete a proposal within the timeframe requires a new application to be lodged and Planning Consent granted.
If a proposal that has been granted Planning Consent is found to be in breach of any of the attached conditions, action could be taken by the Shire to rectify any issues that are as a result of an infringement to the conditions. If there are any questions regarding conditions attached to a Planning Consent, the Shire’s Planning Department should be contacted for more information.
