The Council Plan 2025-2029 is being developed from a range of contributions, including a Deliberative Engagement Panel made up of community members from across the Shire. It's now time for the wider community to have their say on the Plan's priorities for our services and amenities. Complete the survey on our Participate Hepburn webpage before Sunday 27 April. Hard copies at libraries and hubs.
Due to the multiple public holidays, there are some impacts to Council's services and offices.
The application for an extension of time on a planning permit must be submitted:
If you submit your request outside these times, Council and the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) cannot extend the permit. A new application for a planning permit must be submitted.
There is no guarantee that the request will be approved. Each request is assessed individually and the delegate has authority to issue a refusal if the request is deemed inappropriate.
Complete and submit the online application form. To do so, find your permit application here. Scroll to the bottom of the page and Select Extension of Time to Permit Dates.
You must provide your application number and the reason for the extension. If you have commenced works, you must provide supporting documents with your request.
Pay the application fee. The fee to request an extension is between $293 and $654, depending on the number of previous requests you have made. You can make the payment online here. Have your invoice handy for payment details. Your application will only be processed once payment has been received.
