How to make a Submission

For grant of a discretionary permit the Burnie planning authority must notify all adjoining owners and occupiers, place a notice on the site, and place a notice in the Advocate newspaper; providing a period of 14-days during which any interested person may inspect the application.

 

Anyone may make a representation (in favour of or against) a discretionary application during the 14 day exhibition period.  

Representations in writing, must be received before close of the specified exhibition period. 

A representation must relate to the discretionary matter in the Tasmanian Planning Scheme for that application.

You can lodge representation clearly marked “Representation Land Use Permit Application -  (reference number)” –

  • by email to burnie@burnie.tas.gov.au 
  • by post addressed to –
    Planning Department
    Burnie City Council
    PO Box 973, Burnie TAS 7320; or
  • by delivery to City Offices, 80 Wilson Street, Burnie.

The planning authority will advise you of the outcome of your representation and its decision on the permit application.

A person who has made a representation and who is dissatisfied with a decision of the planning authority may appeal that decision to the Tasmanian Civil and Administrative Tribunal.

Please note - If the use or development does not require a permit, or if a permit is not discretionary, the planning authority is not required to notify a permit application.  There is no right for an adjoining owner or occupier, or for any other person, to view the application or to make a representation in relation to that application.
