Introduction

This information is required if the construction has any effect on the neighbours. In that case, a 'protection notice' may need to be issued prior to work commencing:

  • Photo of a vacant block of land and the wall of a house on the adjacent block.Sketch the location of each adjacent residence, taking note of window positions, front and side setbacks, wall length dimensions and taking note of window positions.
  • Sketch and dimension the location of any significant trees within three meters of the fence line.
  • • Sketch the location of any swimming pools, spas and special gardens between the adjacent house and the boundary.
