Have 5 years to do so. I don't think that is correct. Your OB approval relates to one property. The 6 year period between builds can be waived if it's on the same property otherwise it's one project every 6 years. All owners of the property have to have their names on the OB approval. So husband can't apply for one OB approval on one property and wife on the other property unless they are in individual names.

Once you get OB approval you have 6 months to apply for the actual permit. That approval would then apply to that permit. You can build again within 6 years on the same property but you have to apply for a waiver and then another approval from what I know. If both structures are on the same property then it would be easier to get the permit for all construction at the same time. I can't imagine many places (except a rural property) where you would build a workshop and a house on the same property. I just assumed that they were separate properties.

I have plans to split it into two and put the second piece on my wife's name. I think, them i will be able to get OBs approvals for both of us. I have been through BCA's requirements, they say that a commercial building of less than 500 sq meters can be build by an OB in WA. I was considering building a childcare (class 3A building) on one and a house on the other with steel framing. Still in the process of getting more info I am not sure whether Perth has its own way of doing things in regards to this. Most of Perth has class A (sandy soil), except for some areas near rivers or hills. 2 13098 Hi I am wanting some opinions about the build of a steel shed I am going to get one about 4.5 x 2.5 m steel shed and the height will be about 2.3-2.4m high The one I am… 0 14442 I don’t think so as the floor area over 300 square meters then it is class 3…. 12 17935 |
