VicSmart vs regular planning permit triggers and processes

Can a VicSmart application be assessed under the regular permit process?

If a proposal meets the criteria for a VicSmart application, council must assess the application within 10 days using the VicSmart process. A council cannot choose to assess the proposal using the regular permit process.

What happens if a permit trigger is not classed as VicSmart?

If an application requires a permit under a provision of the scheme that is not identified as a VicSmart application, then the application cannot be assessed under the VicSmart process and the regular permit process will apply.
