Another point to discuss with them. In our (Rural) situation, advice from our council was that provided it was 100M away from the property boundary to the nearest Vicroads road we would not require a planning permit for a shed however a building permit is still required. There has to be some benefit to having been rezoned from Rural Living to Farming Zone (Despite the property already being less than half of the smallest allowed subdivision in FZ and absolutely not viable as a farm, unless perhaps I convert it over to 40 acres of marijuana or some similar cash crop!)
Sooner or later I still plan to build a ROR obs and I reckon I will have to rejoin the ASV at the time (I should anyway) to hopefully be able to scout out a member who is appropriately licensed to issue building permits. That way at least I would not spend so much time trying to explain the concept of why I want the roof to roll off to someone who has no knowledge of astronomy.
