Introduction

Planning Schemes Online (PSO) provides access to the approved planning schemes for the 79 local government and for the 3 special planning areas in the State of Victoria.

Planning Schemes consist of ordinance (text) and maps which describe the land use zones and overlays. Find out more about Planning Schemes.

The ordinance and maps are presented as Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF) files. In order to view these files you will need to have installed the Adobe Acrobat Reader software. The Adobe Acrobat Reader is bundled with the latest version of most popular web browsers, and is also available for free download from the Adobe website. Both the text and map PDFs can be opened within your web browser or Adobe depending on your Internet preference settings in Adobe.

The speed at which you will be able to access information in Planning Schemes Online (PSO) is related to the speed of your Internet connection. For the PDFs, once Acrobat reader has been opened for the first time subsequent viewing of documents take much less time. Please be patient when accessing maps as tests on a 56Kb modem have indicated that the maps can take up to 90 seconds to download.

This site has been updated to include amendments of the 2nd of October 2008.
