PlanBuild Tasmania is now live

Announcements

PlanBuild Tasmania allows anyone to enter an address in the portal to see what planning zones and codes apply to their property. A Property Report can be generated which includes maps, details of the planning zone, codes and other information that affect the selected property.

PlanBuild Tasmania is now live

For those properties that fall under the Tasmanian Planning Scheme, PlanBuild Tasmania provides a comprehensive Guided Enquiry service, including identifying planning, building and plumbing rules that may apply to a proposed project.

You will be able to work through a series of questions on your proposed project resulting in information on:

  • who to consult (e.g. local council, Heritage Tasmania)
  • who can do the work (e.g. a licensed builder)
  • what to apply for (e.g. a permit).

After completing an enquiry if you have additional questions or wants to request advice from a council, this can be lodged online using PlanBuild Tasmania.
