The applications propose:
- utility installation – wetlands (application P/2021/6170)
- a 2 stage subdivision (application P/2021/6169)
- site access, associated works and vegetation removal (application P/2021/6171)
These applications were refused by Council, and Development Victoria appealed these decisions to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Appeal Tribunal (VCAT).
VCAT on 18 March 2024, provided their determination of the application, which overturned Council’s position on the applications, and directed that Council issue planning permits for these applications.
The VCAT decision can be read here: Development Victoria v Knox CC [2024] VCAT 152 (18 March 2024) (austlii.edu.au)
