Toowoomba Regional Council (TRC) will soon implement changes to certain Plumbing and Drainage applications to fast-track the process.
TRC Planning and Development Committee Portfolio Lead Cr Bill Cahill said the new process would begin 1 July.
"Council will opt-in to fast-track permit works for certain Plumbing and Drainage applications provided under the current legislation," Cr Cahill said.
"This is a way we are trying to streamline applications and make the overall process easier for our residents."
"Accepted plumbing fast-track permit work will be for one new class 1a building (one single detached dwelling on a single sewered allotment)."
Applicants going through this process must provide the following:
- Complete and sign the Form 1 Permit Work Application
- Applicable fee
- Floor plan
- Site plan indicating all boundaries and street frontages. Location of mandatory rainwater tank to be shown
- Elevations
- All plans to show correct street address or lot/plan and be drawn to scale
- A copy of the soil classification report (as per section 5 on Form 1)
- A copy of the articulation design (as per section 5 on Form 1)
They also have the option to complete the Notification of Responsible Person form.
