Of those decided
Subdivision, new builds, demolition
65 of these sit in a heritage overlay, where even partial demolition needs a permit — one reason Toorak sees so many applications for work that looks minor from the street.
The ones that change a street
Subdivisions, new dwellings and demolitions — the applications most likely to affect what your street looks like, and what property on it is worth.
