ANTE V- Permit
Building over an easement (extra permissions required)
They wanted the deck to be located outside special building envelopes affecting their property.
Building the deck within 1.0m of the boundary (Report & Consent for Reg.79 required).
Developer Approval required as it’s a new estate with specific design guidelines.
Actions Taken:
We prepared the plans which involved obtaining the location & depths of any pipes travelling through the easement. The stump footings were located 600mm+ offset to the pipes to ensure easement design guidelines were met.
The building surveyor assessed the plans & gave us a long list of items to gather.
We applied for build-over easement approval with the relevant authorities.
We submitted an application under Report & Consent to council to request they vary Regulation 79 & allow the deck to run to the boundary.
The plans were forwarded to the Design Review Panel responsible for the housing estate with a request their approval.
Outcome:
We had all the plans created, reviewed & approved by the client, Ante, within 3 weeks.
Then the fun started. Compiling all the special permissions for this permit was an exercise in good management & we relied heavily on our internal workflow systems to keep everyone on track. It took 3.5 months of diligent work but the result was another building permit was approved for Andre.
Ante was a fantastic client. He gave us plenty of patience & support to get everything sorted out for him & we were so grateful for that relationship.

Brad and the team are very professional to deal with. Communication was also great which made the whole process a whole lot easier. Thanks to the team at Haven Design my family has a great decking to enjoy around the pool. I would highly recommend Haven Design.
