Planning FAQs - Do I need a Planning Permit for signage?

More often than not, a Planning Permit is required for signage (i.e. business identification signage). If you require a Planning Permit for signage you will need to determine what zone applies to the land and if there are any overlays affecting the property.

Each zone will specify which category of signage controls apply. Clause 52.05 of the South Gippsland Planning Scheme advise what types of signs require a Planning Permit, what signs are prohibited, and what signs do not require planning approval.
