Building notices from Macedon Ranges Shire Council
Macedon Ranges building notices are served by the council's municipal building surveyor and give a date and time by which to make representations, with a choice of post, email or delivery in person to the Gisborne office.
The council's covering letter explains that keeping work built without a permit will need reports and a building permit for rectification works, issued by a registered building surveyor.
Building notices for illegal building work in Macedon Ranges are served by Macedon Ranges Shire Council's municipal building surveyor, the registered building surveyor the council appoints to enforce the Building Act. A building notice asks you to show cause, in writing and by the date printed on it, why you should not have to do what it describes, such as demolishing and removing the work. Make your representations to the municipal building surveyor in the manner the notice gives. If the municipal building surveyor is not satisfied, or nothing arrives in time, they can make a building order.
Macedon Ranges Shire Council keeps a register of building notices and orders in the municipality, which anyone can inspect during office hours. If you are buying a property, ask the council whether one applies to it.

Building notice certification: how we help
- Inspect the work as built and report on what complies and what does not.
- Tell you which documents are needed, such as drawings of the work as built and an engineer's report or design for any rectification work.
- Issue the building permit for the rectification work, and carry out the inspections.
- Issue the certificate of final inspection or occupancy permit, and give you what you need to send to Macedon Ranges Shire Council with your representations.
To have the notice cancelled, your representations to the municipal building surveyor should reply to each item in the notice and include the report, building permit and, once the work is complete, the final certificate. If you believe the notice is wrong, say why and attach the evidence, such as a permit already issued for the work.
Need more time? We can write to Macedon Ranges Shire Council's municipal building surveyor on your behalf, before the date on the notice, to ask for an extension, setting out what is under way and when we expect it done. Whether to allow it is the municipal building surveyor's decision.
