Bushfire Management Statement Explained

An accredited BPAD Level 2 Planning Practitioner issues a Bushfire Management Statement, which demonstrates your lot-specific bushfire mitigation measures to comply with the SPP3.7 State Planning Policy and any Local Government Requirements.

You will need a Bushfire Management Statement for most single lots proposing a dwelling or ancillary dwelling with a higher BAL Rating that needs reduction, especially if your lot is in a special control zone like the Shire of Mundaring or if the LGA requests one.

Although similar to a Bushfire Management Plan in content, these documents are smaller and preferred for simpler developments. They facilitate easier understanding for both the landowner and the approving authority.
