What is a submission?
A submission is a written statement explaining your views about an application, and how you may be affected if a permit is issued.
The submission will carry more weight if it is rational, factual and specifically addresses the proposal and relevant heritage matters.
A submission should:
- Be made using the public submission form
- Explain your views
- Relate to matters that Heritage Victoria must or may consider, including:
- How the proposal would impact the heritage significance of the place
- How the proposal would assist with the reasonable or economic use of the place
- How the proposal would impact on the conservation of the place
- How the proposal would impact on adjacent heritage places.
A submission is a public document and copies may be made available to other people or organisations, including the permit applicant and the Heritage Council of Victoria.
