DA Approved!
It is always satisfying to see the refusal of a Development Application ('DA') reversed on appeal to the NSW Land and Environment Court.
In this case the team’s lateral thinking and innovative approach allowed us to navigate around dual occupancy planning controls that simply didn’t work with the realities of the highly irregular shaped lot.
This saw issues quickly fall away and our Client’s DA for alts and ads to an existing dwelling (including first floor extension) plus a new detached two storey dwelling with subdivision approved by s34 agreement.
The outcome highlights the benefits of forming a team which genuinely engages with the issues at hand, collaborates and is able to expertly deliver practical and bespoke solutions to overcome constraints and limitations. That approach is paying dividends for developers large and small in the current planning system.
A big thank you and congratulations to all those involved – it’s always a privilege to work alongside such dedicated and talented people, including:
Architecture and Development: Neomorph Projects
Planning: Jeff Mead and Planning Ingenuity
Build on!
