Permits, council and building disputes in Mambourin VIC

Mambourin falls within Wyndham City Council. A registered building surveyor issues your building permit, carries out the mandatory inspections and issues the occupancy permit at the end. If a dispute with your builder cannot be settled in writing, it goes to the Building and Plumbing Commission's dispute resolution service (formerly DBDRV) and then to VCAT's Building and Property List.

The building surveyor issues the permit and the occupancy permit.

Council issues planning permits and report and consent where needed.

Raise defects with the builder in writing first.

Next comes the BPC dispute resolution service, formerly DBDRV.

VCAT needs an expert witness report, not a defect report.
