Building Information Certificate
A Building Information Certificate confirms Council will not issue a Development Control Order under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 or Local Government Act 1993 requiring the building to be repaired, demolished, altered, added to or rebuilt. The certificate also prevents Council from taking civil proceedings in relation to any encroachment by the building onto land vested in or under the control of Council.
A building Information Certificate is not an occupation certificate or substitute for an occupation certificate.
Council may still issue a Fire Safety Order under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 or a Building Product Rectification Order under the Building Products (Safety) Act 2017 if a building information certificate has been issued.
