If you qualify for the VicSmart permit application process, the council will have given you a VicSmart application form and one or more of the checklists like the one below. You should be able to find answers to any questions you have about the VicSmart application form or checklists on this site.
This site also allows you to do your own planning permit online. It simplifies the government’s VicSmart application form, checklists, permit decision criteria, local planning schemes and government guides with planning advice in an interactive online guide to help you, step by step, with the VicSmart permit application process.
