Demolition Permits in Bendigo: Report and Consent, Surveyors and Heritage

Who approves what in Victoria

Building surveyor. Issues the building permit for demolition.
City of Greater Bendigo: report and consent (s29A). Required where demolition, over three years, would remove more than half the building's volume, or affect any part of a street-facing facade (including verandahs, chimneys and roof planes).
Planning permit. Often required in a Heritage Overlay. Council will not give consent if a required planning permit has not been obtained.
Service authorities. Power, gas, water and sewer are abolished or disconnected by the relevant authorities and licensed trades.
Asbestos. It must be identified and, so far as reasonably practicable, removed before domestic demolition. Licensed removal is required above 10 m² of non-friable asbestos, and for any friable asbestos.

Heritage in Bendigo

Bendigo has extensive Heritage Overlay areas linked to its goldfields history. Demolition there needs a planning permit, and council may ask for a heritage practitioner report.
