Caulfield, Clayton and Peninsula campuses are zoned Public Use Zone 2 (PUZ2) which recognises use for educational purposes. The PUZ2 zoning also means that planning permits are not required, providing the land is used and developed for educational purposes. Parts of these campuses, however are affected by planning overlays, which require permits and approvals from the respective Councils. Parkville campus is located in a Commercial 1 Zone (C1Z) and is also affected by planning overlays, requiring permits and approvals from the City of Melbourne.
