Permits, council and building disputes in Melton South VIC
Your building permit comes from a registered building surveyor rather than the council, and the occupancy permit at completion comes from the same surveyor. The City of Melton handles planning permits and report and consent. Where a dispute cannot be resolved with the builder in writing, the route is the Building and Plumbing Commission's dispute resolution service, formerly DBDRV, and then VCAT.

Victorian domestic work over the threshold must carry Domestic Building Insurance.
