Subdivision and engineering guidelines
The Engineering Requirements for Infrastructure Construction Policy sets out our requirements for engineering design and the construction of subdivision and other development works within the Macedon Ranges Shire.
The policy provides guidance and aims to ensure the quality of new public assets, the compatibility of private works with Council's infrastructure, and the protection of the environment from the impacts of development.
