Building services

Our Building Services Team works to meet council's statutory obligations and ensure compliance with building legislation and other regulations. Our team includes registered building practitioners who are experienced in assisting with your building needs and enquiries.

The Online Planning and Building Portal (Greenlight) is your one-stop-shop to applying for a Building Permit, including Report and Consent Applications, Section 29A's and more. You can also submit a General Enquiry to check if a building permit will be required via the portal for our team to review.

You can find support, including how to set up an account and submit documents, via the Online Planning and Building Portal support page.

Please contact us on 03 5858 8700 or email building@ngshire.vic.gov.au for reliable and accurate advice on local building issues, regulations and illegal work.
