Gillett v Manly Council [2006] NSWLEC 149

Gillett v Manly Council [2006] NSWLEC 149

The requested deletion of conditions ANS01 and ANS12 was refused except for the privacy screen requirement in ANS01, on the basis that the proposed changes—particularly the 1m balcony extension and the southeast balcony—would each represent a moderate, but cumulatively significant, adverse impact on the heritage streetscape and neighbour amenity. The existing consents already represent the extent of permissible change.
