Alpine Resorts Victoria welcomes VCAT’s planning permit approval for the Falls Creek Lakeside Development

Alpine Resorts Victoria (ARV) has this week advised the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) has approved the planning permit for the Falls Creek Lakeside Development.

The planning permit for this development, which was approved by the Victorian Minister for Planning in April 2024, was objected to by a group of resort stakeholders. This resulted in the matter being heard before VCAT late last year with the original approval being upheld.

ARV advised that it is “pleased that VCAT has granted the planning permit for the Lakeside Development Project, and look forward to continued collaboration with all parties to move the project forward and create a development that benefits the entire community.”
