CHANGES introduced by the Victorian Government that allow small second homes up to 60 square metres to be built (in many cases) without a planning permit will be discussed at an information session hosted by the City of Greater Bendigo.<\/p>\n

At the session, to be held from 5.15pm to 6.30pm on Wednesday 20 November at Bendigo GovHub in Lyttleton Terrace, City planners and industry experts will explain the simplified process of building a second smaller home within locals’ residential or land boundaries.<\/p>\n

Attendees will also hear from modular home manufacturer Swanbuild to gain an insight into the costs associated with building a second dwelling.<\/p>\n

City acting strategic planning manager Bridget Maplestone encouraged any interested people to attend.<\/p>\n

“This is an opportunity to better understand what is involved in building a second dwelling on your residential land and what you need to consider,” she said.<\/p>\n

“Building a second dwelling on existing residential land is only a small part of a much bigger picture, as we know a greater diversity of housing types is needed to meet future community needs.<\/p>\n

“The new strategy highlights the importance of developing more housing in established areas close to existing services, infrastructure and shops, rather than a focus on outward expansion in greenfield areas.”<\/p>\n
