Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal under Class Q.1(i)(i) would consist of building operations that exceed those permitted as reasonably necessary for the building to function as a dwellinghouse
What decided it
The ambiguous description of the building and inconsistent plans, particularly regarding works to the garage/store element and lack of clear structural detail, meant the proposal included works exceeding those reasonably necessary for the building to function as a dwellinghouse under Class Q.1(i)(i) of the GPDO.
