VCAT Decisions
The Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) is a State Government-appointed panel of experts which independently reviews planning decisions made by councils.
VCAT conducts public hearings and considers submissions made by all parties before making a decision.
VCAT may also make orders requiring documents to be placed on Council’s website, to be viewed by parties to the dispute.
An appeal to VCAT is called an 'application for a review' and the party making the application is called the 'applicant for review'.
Application for a review - the most common types
The most common types of reviews lodged are by a person who has:
- Had a planning permit application refused. An application for review must be lodged within 60 days from when the 'Notice of Refusal to Grant a Permit' has been issued by Council
- Had a permit approved but disagrees with the conditions of the permit. An application for review of conditions must be lodged within 60 days from when the permit was granted by Council
- Objected to a planning permit that has been approved. An application for review must be lodged within 21 days from when the 'Notice of Decision to Grant a Permit' was issued by Council
- Lodged a planning permit application and is yet to get a decision from Council after 60 days (known as 'Failure to Determine')
Please find below recent VCAT decisions and cases being reviewed involving Monash Council. Please note, some of the links will take you to an external database maintained by the Australasian Legal Information Institute.
