Go as far as you can see and you will see further.
Thanks for that itsandrew, it would be welcome….
Unless you are impacted by something your neighbour does that decreases the value of your house………
The changes being talked about are not so much for property development projects, but for the scores of other permit applications that clog up the system. Anything from a Town Planning Permit for a cross over (I had to do one for a client last year, and it cost thousands and took months) to a street table permit.
Any subdivision and/or development project should – in my opinion – be subjected to town planning controls, and the neighbours should retain a right of objection. Just move the trifling matters into another assessment stream.
