Provincial Planning Pty Ltd v Manly Council [2004] NSWLEC 413

Provincial Planning Pty Ltd v Manly Council [2004] NSWLEC 413

The proposed development, while not strictly complying with certain numeric controls of the Development Control Plan, satisfies the relevant objectives and performance criteria. The privacy, landscaping, height, pool location, access handles, and setbacks adequately address the concerns raised and do not warrant refusal. The landscape bond condition should be $35,000, as agreed, rather than $155,500.
