Permits, council and building disputes in Point Cook VIC

Your building permit is issued by a registered building surveyor rather than the council, and the occupancy permit at completion comes from the same surveyor. Wyndham handles planning permits and report and consent. Where a dispute cannot be settled with the builder in writing, the route runs through the Building and Plumbing Commission's dispute resolution service, formerly DBDRV, and then to VCAT.
