Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

- if so, whether prior approval should be granted for the impact on the amenity of any adjoining premises and for the external appearance of the dwellinghouse
What decided it
The proposed roof pitch would be steeper than the existing roof pitch and the dormer windows would break the roof plane, failing to comply with the mandatory condition in paragraph AA.2(2)(c) of Class AA of the GPDO.
