Plans in for shire approval

Its been a quiet few weeks on the blog front but we have had our first battle.

Plans were submitted to the land developer, LWP, for approval a couple of weeks ago but were rejected last week on the grounds the the front elevation of the house did not meet the design guidelines for the area.  LWP wanted us to include a "feature highlight" to the front of the house from brick or wood and after reviewing the contract we felt this wasnt a requirement.

After much going back and forth and arguing our point LWP have backed down and we have compromised on having two render colours on the front of the house rather than the one we have planned.

We think it will look better like this anyway and to avoid any delays the builder is throwing it in for nothing so a win all round!

Plans should go in for shire approval tomorrow and after that we are ready to go.
