Permission to Lodge

In the same way that permission of the landowner is required to lodge a development application on land, this is also required in respect of development applications on waterways under the ownership of Maritime. In order to obtain Permission to Lodge from Maritime you must make a formal application.

In granting Permission to Lodge, Maritime, is only exercising its role as a landowner and is simply agreeing to the lodgement of a development application to the local council or consent authority. It is important to note that in granting Permission to Lodge Maritime is not exercising its role as a consent authority, and is also not endorsing the proposal nor issuing development consent.

Permission to Lodge application forms and accompanying information can be found here:

The fee for an application for Permission to Lodge is currently $400. This can be paid by either:

• cheque - made payable to ‘Maritime’
• credit card - please fill out this form and include it with your application
