Annual Fire Safety Statements – Penrith

Penrith is Western Sydney's western gateway, with a growing commercial and industrial footprint that includes major developments across the LGA. If you own or manage a building in the Penrith City Council area, you are required to lodge an Annual Fire Safety Statement (AFSS) every 12 months with both Penrith Council and Fire & Rescue NSW. Failure to lodge on time can result in penalty notices and Fire Safety Orders — both of which can be costly and disruptive.

FireSafe provides end-to-end AFSS inspections across the Penrith LGA. Our FPAS-accredited Fire Safety Assessors inspect every essential fire-safety measure in your building, issue a draft AFSS within 48 hours of defects being cleared, and provide you with a step-by-step lodgement guide so you can submit on time.

How to lodge your AFSS with Penrith Council:

Building owners in the Penrith LGA must submit their completed Annual Fire Safety Statement through Penrith City Council's online portal along with a copy of their current Fire Safety Schedule. You must also lodge a copy with Fire & Rescue NSW through their online submission form at fire.nsw.gov.au — there is no lodgement fee. A copy of the AFSS and Fire Safety Schedule must be prominently displayed in the building. Penrith Council reviews submitted statements for compliance and may take enforcement action where non-conformances are identified.
