    GOOD NEWS!

     

    Hunters Hill Council has won its case at the Land & Environment Court which supported Council’s rejection of the 4 storey  ‘shop-top housing development’ planned on the old bank sites at 58-60 Gladesville Road at the overpass.

     

    It found that the building didnt comply with the DCP, was too high, had insufficient setbacks and overshadowed neighbouring heritage buildings.  The judgment can be found here:
