Application type
Instructions
Building File Information Request
2024/2025 Application Fee $125 for one (1) building and 50% of original fee for each additional building. This application fee is non-refundable and payable upon application and
covers the cost of the first copy of the requested documents if located.
If documents for additional buildings on the same property are requested an additional 50% fee is applicable for each building. Additional fees are applicable for further pages and any document larger than A3 in size. No guarantee is given to the quality of the copies provided.
Documentation is generally available for building permit records less than 25 years old but the likelihood of locating older permits is greatly reduced. Council does not hold all building records, particularly for the original construction of dwellings by the Ministry of Housing, Department of Health and Human Services and like State Government entities.
Due to the complexity of the searches required, applications may take up to 10 business days to be processed.
