The short answer is everyone. Any new building and any alteration that adds on to or changes the structure of an existing building must go to the City's (Planning) Development Management Department for approval. If you redecorate your kitchen, or replaster your house, you don't need permission, because you haven't moved any walls around or altered the drainage system. But if you make a change to the structure, for example, add on a carport, or even just move the front door, you do need permission. When you submit a building plan for approval it is essential that you make sure that you have complied with the zoning regulations of the Town Planning Scheme.
