When do you need an access across reserves permit?
You need an access across reserves permit to get access to private property through an adjoining Council reserve or Council property for any building works or similar.
There are some reasons where we may not issue a permit depending on:
- seasonal conditions - we are less likely to approve a permit during winter as there is a higher likelihood of damage to our reserves and land or
- environmentally sensitive areas.
Who can apply?
The property owner and/or their contractor can apply for this permit.
How much does it cost?
The application fee is $161.90 (non-refundable).
You will also need to pay a refundable security deposit (minimum $250 to $2,000 plus).
How to apply
To apply for consent you will need:
- A completed application form
- Supporting documentation.
