Outline pp

[Hannah]

Hi

We have had some drawings sketched to look at before going ahead and trying for pp. We’ve been advised that it’s prob. a good idea to clear some trees and level the plot beforehand so we’ll be in a better position for stuff to be granted. Tree people have been in and mapped out roots etc etc. already. Do you think it’s necessary to prep the land if we just went for Outline?

Am very much a newbie and just trying to weigh up things.

Yes, if those trees and root protection areas are going to get in you way of your plans (and they don't have TPO's or your in a conservation area) get them down before you submit outline.

Are these trees mature and what type are they?

Hannah, get them cut down, pronto. Just do it.

 

Locally, if a tree has a TPO on it, developers employ a mate of mine to disappear the tree. He does it on Sunday mornings well before breakfast. He's usually in church by 10:00. The developer pays the eventual fine and writes that down against tax.

 

Oh, by the way, welcome.

Many thanks everyone. This is going to be a complicated process. Headache already...
