We detected a change to Hindmarsh's planning scheme (VC323): for full accuracy, we're showing the amendment's own official government description directly: "Amend clause 59.05 (Building and works in an overlay) to enable a VicSmart application for land within an EMO to be accompanied by the information specified in the EMO, including information specified in a schedule to the EMO.", this is the amendment's own official wording, not a PolicyPing-generated description of the scheme text.
In Clause 32.05-6, the text was modified to clarify that a dwelling can be constructed or extended on a lot less than 300 square metres if it meets specific standards of Clause 54, with the removal of "Building height" from the list of standards.
The Hindmarsh Planning Scheme was updated in amendment VC313, which included changes to Clause 14.03.
The amendment changed the date of the VC312 update to 16/06/2026.
