Planning Referral Register 2026 - Excel Download

Planning Victoria has released its 2026 Planning Permit Referrals register, providing public access to data on development applications requiring referral to statutory authorities.

The Excel file, available on the Victorian Government's website, contains details of planning permits that have been referred to various bodies for assessment or comment during the year.

For Mallee residents, the register offers insight into development activity across the region, including proposals that may impact local infrastructure, environment or community facilities. The data can help community members track planning decisions affecting their towns and shires.

Planning referrals are required for certain classes of development under Victorian planning schemes, with referrals made to authorities including water corporations, transport bodies and environmental agencies.

The register is updated periodically throughout 2026 and can be accessed via the Planning Victoria website.
