Two types are applicable:
Subdivision with Reticulated Services (generally Residential).
Subdivision with Limited or no Services (generally Rural Residential or Rural)
Subdivision with Reticulated Services (generally Residential).
1. Search of Titles and Subdivision Plans
2. Discussions with Council
3. Detail Survey of Site, location of existing Services
4. Draft Design of current and future services by engineer for TasWater.
5. Preparation of Proposal Plan + engineering, Landslip, geo-technical, BAL assessment, Flora & Fauna etc and lodgement of same. Council Fees.
6. 42 day waiting period whilst Council process.
7. RFI possibility (request for more info, engineering, Landslip, geo-technical, BAL assessment, Flora & Fauna etc) halt to the 42 days
8. Issue (hopefully) of Permit with Conditions, including TasWater conditions.
9. Chance of Appeal by all/any parties for 14 days
10. Decision to move forward involving additional Reports to reflect Permit (engineering, Landslip, geo-technical, BAL assessment, Flora & Fauna etc)
11. Final Title Survey + setout of engineering details.
12. Construction + tidy up
14. Preparation of Legal documents, Schedule of Easements, bonds, Titles Office (LTO) fees, Council fees, lodging of original titles at the Titles Office (Resulting in a Production Slip that goes to the surveyor with the Schedule of Easements).
15. NOTE ALL PERMIT CONDITIONS MUST BE COMPLETED
16. Lodgement of all documents with Council and the Lands Titles Office with their respective fees + TasWater. (the documents are duplicated and travel in two directions, Council and the LTO)
17. Await checking and sign off by all parties. (this is the slow part, usually at Council and TasWater)
18. Sealing of the Final Plan and Docs, forwarding to the LTO and issue of title on accepted documents.Plan of Survey, Plan Sealing & Titles: The completion of Permit Conditions and Survey Documentation allows the Survey Plan (Plan of Survey..see the second plan above and note that both plans reflect the same land, one prepared before Title Survey work and the other AFTER Title Survey field work) to proceed to Council & the Lands Titles Office for issue of new titles. Again the tortuous path here is ‘getting through’ the council and obtaining a Seal on the survey plan. All sections of Council must sign off on their own respective responsibilities, particularly planning, health & engineering. Further, the Water Authority (now TasWater) now play a big part in the Final Approval process, requiring a full As Constructed Survey of all new features + a plan relating. These regulations were upgraded in 2013 and have become quite onerous. They will be especially interested in ensuring that all permit conditions have been satisfied. This is the last opportunity for Council to ensure compliance with Permit Conditions and the intent of the Permit. This need to ensure compliance with Permit conditions can involve (but not restricted to) the following list of matters, taken from two recent (August 2022) "Requests to Seal a Final Plan" lodged with the Clarence City Council. Please refer to this Glossary for any unknown terms.
