If you’re subdividing, you’ll need to include a plan of subdivision in your application. Just select the “subdivision” option and attach your proposed plan in the "document details" section. (Please note – NO architectural or building site plans as substitutes, thanks). 

You’ll also need to give details on the electricity supply for the existing dwellings, including the service connection route and meter position.

Please give us your very best estimate for the electricity supply you mean to use, in kilowatts or horsepower. 

Your input on specific needs, like air-con and floor-heating, means we can tailor our design to fit them. 

Please sketch your property layout so we can pinpoint your desired electricity supply locations. 

For larger rural properties, precise details on every structure and object are a must. Measurements and pole numbers too. Fences taken as property boundaries unless stated.

Here’s a tip – there’s a good chance you can get a free aerial photograph of your property on the internet or through your real estate agent or council.

And please tell us about any:

•    rows of trees
•    buildings
•    waterways
•    railway lines
•    highways
•    steep slopes
•    rocky terrain
•    power lines crossing
•    utility assets (Telstra etc)

If in doubt, spell it out!

Please provide the distance to the nearest power pole to your property. Pole number too. This is usually found on a plastic or aluminium strip fixed to the pole at about eye level, often starting with the letter A. Sending a clear photo of the strip is a good way to get the number right, and prevent potential delay.
