You will need both the Design Approval from the Kindira Design Committee (Design Committee) and Building Approval from Logan City Council (Council) / building certifier before you can commence construction.
Mirvac has developed a streamlined process based on previous experience to ensure that you can start building your home and garden as soon as possible.
Hot Tip The Design Committee often receives an influx of applications at the time of settlement. To avoid any potential delays to starting the build on your lot, we recommend that your builder submits your application as early as possible to give you a head start on the assessment process.
Your builder will work with you to design your home to comply with this document.
Proceed to Step 2 once you’re happy with your design and your builder has drawn up the consolidated set of plans.
Hot Tip It may seem daunting but often your builder has plenty of experience with this process.
Your builder submits your house plans, colour schedules, landscape plans and proof of covenant payment (refer to Step 3) to the Design Committee via the Building @ Kindira Portal.
Hot Tip Please ensure that your builder attaches all the required documentation listed in the Covenant Application Form as part of the submission.
Your fully refundable Covenant Bond is required to be deposited to the following account to be held in trust.
Hot Tip Be sure to include the proof of bond payment as part of your covenant application to avoid a delay in the assessment and approval process. The bond will be returned after the final inspection (refer Step 9).
The Design Committee will assess your submission for compliance with the Design Standards & Guidelines. Approval can be expected within 21 days working days, provided all documents have been submitted and they comply with the Kindira Design Standards & Guidelines. In the event of non-compliance, structured feedback will be provided to facilitate approval. If all feedback has been addressed, you should expect approval within 10 working days of resubmitting.
The Design Committee will issue an approval when your submission has been assessed as complying with the Design Standards & Guidelines. Your stamped approved plans will be provided to you and your builder via the Building @ Kindira Portal.
Hot Tip Please take care to note any comments on your Kindira Design Committee stamped approved plans to ensure that all conditions of the Design Committee approval are addressed.
Once the Design Committee approval has been issued, your builder can then make an application to your accredited building certifier/ Council for the Statutory Building Approval.
Please ensure that your lot is properly maintained to be free of excessive weeds, rubbish or garbage prior to and during the construction phase of your home. This will ensure that the land is safe at all times.
Once your house and please touch base with us landscaping is complete, via the Building @ Kindira Portal to organise your final inspection.
The covenant bond will then be refunded once final compliance approval is issued by the Design Committee and the return bond form is completed on the Building @ Kindira Portal.
