Council and approvals in Torquay

Torquay is in the Surf Coast Shire. Your council is the first stop for questions about stormwater at your property, including the legal point of discharge, the place where your stormwater is allowed to leave the block. It also handles street trees, works on the nature strip and, depending on the job, local planning rules such as heritage and neighbourhood character overlays.

If you are planning drainage changes, a new bathroom that adds a drain connection or work near a street tree, ask the council what applies before work starts. Your plumber can tell you what the plumbing side needs, and the council tells you what the planning and local-law side needs. Rules differ between properties, so check the details for your address on the council's website or by phone.

What the council says

Surf Coast Shire says it maintains council-owned stormwater assets, including drains and pits in streets and designated drainage easements on private property. It notes that the Victorian Building Regulations require stormwater from new buildings to be discharged at a point nominated by the council. It also advises owners whose property is within a flood overlay to understand their flood risk and how to prepare.

Official council pages: Surf Coast Shire: water. These pages describe the council's own process, and the rules that apply depend on your address, so confirm the details with the council.

Who looks after what in Torquay

Water and sewer services in Torquay are run by Barwon Water, which covers Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast. Barwon Water looks after the street mains and sewer main. Barwon Water states that its sewer responsibility runs from the sewer main to the first inspection opening or one metre inside the property boundary, whichever is less, and that everything after that point is the owner's. See its sewer blockages page for the current wording. If you are not sure whose fault it is, ring us and describe what you can see.

When to call straight away
