Ladehai Pty Ltd v Tweed Shire Council [2018] NSWLEC 1016

Ladehai Pty Ltd v Tweed Shire Council [2018] NSWLEC 1016

The proposed redevelopment is permissible, does not breach height or other development controls, will not significantly increase noise, and meets parking and management requirements. Impacts, including noise, traffic, and visual character, are acceptable subject to imposition of specific consent conditions (including acoustic barriers, amended plans of management, signage) and further design consultation. Approval is therefore granted, subject to conditions to address identified public interest concerns.
