Trenic Constructions Sub-Divisions

Are you thinking of Subdividing?

Trenic Constructions subdivisions builder; Are you considering subdividing your block or purchasing a larger one to develop into multiple dwellings? Subdivisions are an excellent way to maximise land use, increase property value, and create opportunities for new housing in existing urban areas. At Trenic Constructions, we specialise in navigating the complexities of subdivisions across Geelong and the Surf Coast, helping clients achieve successful outcomes with minimal stress.

Why Subdivide?

Subdividing land offers numerous benefits. It provides an opportunity to unlock the potential of under-utilised land, especially in urban areas where space is at a premium. Subdivisions can also generate additional income through property rentals or sales. Furthermore, in-fill developments—which use already developed areas – are increasingly preferred over large-scale developments on untouched land.

Understanding the Subdivision Process

In Victoria, obtaining permission to subdivide a block requires a formal application to the local council. Working with an experienced and efficient team like Trenic Constructions subdivisions builder ensures you navigate the process with minimal disruption and a higher chance of success. Here is an overview of the steps involved:

Step 1: Assess the Land

Before proceeding, confirm that your land is eligible for subdivision. Key considerations include:

• Covenants: Check your land title for any covenants that may restrict subdivision.
• Overlays: Planning overlays may impose additional constraints like environmental or heritage protection.
• Zoning: Some zones restrict subdivisions or have minimum lot size requirements.

Step 2: Prepare Documentation

A comprehensive application requires detailed documentation, including:

• A site analysis with access points, contours, dimensions, drainage, and vegetation.
• Information about existing structures and surrounding developments.
• A proposed subdivision plan addressing neighbourhood character, overlays and zoning.
• A recent copy of the land title.

Trenic Constructions subdivisions builder ensures all documentation meets the Victorian Planning Provisions, streamlining the application process.

Step 3: Submit to Council

Submit your planning permit application along with the required fee to your local council. The council may request additional information or suggest adjustments to your proposal. Our team at Trenic Constructions works closely with council planners to address any concerns and improve the likelihood of approval.

Step 4: Public Notification

Your subdivision proposal must be advertised to allow for public feedback. This involves:

• Displaying a notice on the property for 14 days.
• Making the application available online and at the council office.

Neighbours and other stakeholders can lodge objections during this period. Trenic Constructions subdivisions builder helps address potential concerns to minimise objections.

Step 5: Council Decision

The council has 60 days to decide after the advertising period. Possible outcomes include:

• Approval: A planning permit is granted, often with conditions.
• Notice of Decision: If objections are received, the council issues a notice outlining its intention to approve. Objectors have 21 days to appeal.
• Refusal: If the proposal is rejected, the reasons will be outlined, and you may modify your application or appeal to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT).

Addressing Challenges in Subdivisions

Subdivisions can be complex, but the right approach can overcome potential hurdles. Common challenges include:

• Access and Infrastructure: Each new lot must provide adequate access, services and utilities.
• Community Concerns: Addressing neighbour objections requires clear communication and thoughtful design.
• Drainage and Soil Conditions: Proper planning ensures the site meets drainage and soil stability requirements.

At Trenic Constructions, we leverage our expertise to anticipate and resolve these issues, ensuring a smooth process.
