In order to comply with the Banyule City Council environmental sustainability design (ESD) criteria, many residential and non-residential planning permit applications must also contain a sustainable design assessment (SDA) or a sustainable management plan (SMP).
Banyule City Council are a leading council in ESD, thus they require more analysis and support for their planning applications than is typical in the market.
If you want to do any of the following without changing your plans for ESD features like rainwater tanks, gardens, or irrigation: develop only one dwelling; extend or renovate an existing dwelling; add a verandah, pergola, decking, fencing, or shed; change the landscaping without interfering with your plans for ESD features like rain gardens, irrigation, or rainwater tanks; or add a non-residential extension of less than 50m2.
