Thanks guys! It feels great when things are moving. I think poor hubby is feeling the stress a bit more. He is snowed under at work and seeking a cloning expert . I have to remind him to think of the curtains and make hay! |

Any small change is exciting at this point, even someone else mowing their grass |

Haha your so right I love how exciting we get over things like grass being mowed or someone else having the site test holes done! We must live in crazy building house bubbles like weirdos I'm glad your getting somewhere with your approvals but I hope it happens faster for you. You've waited so patiently for your build. Your poor husband will be rocking in the corner by the time the builds actually finished lol Good luck |

We had another update from the developer today. They have spoken with our building surveyor and he has said that he is happy to approve the design if they can get it council to confirm their interpretation of the MCP in writing. This sounds very promising! The problem is the developer hasn't been able to get the council guy to answer his phone. We had the same trouble when we were dealing with him, and he has no message bank to leave a message to call you back. He is going to go over his head if he can't get hold of him soon. We think this is probably best anyway, we found him very difficult to deal with. Someone fresh to the situation would be best, everyone keeps saying council doesn't like changing their mind or being shown to be wrong. |

That sounds like you are heading in the right direction, hopefully they can get a hold of him or better yet go over his head!. |

bank Nico Watching this one as I am building the Lexington Hi Nico, what stage are you at? We got our slab down on the 7th and this week have about half the frame up. We have a thread here viewtopic.php?f=31&t=85735&view=unread#unread Only just started the thread but the process itself started back in April with floor plans and picking land in May. Lots of waiting like you for land to title. |

You did well to get from starting planning in April to building in November! You must have had a pretty smooth admin period. |

Post subject: | Re: JG King modified Heywood - Contract signed! |
It's funny because I thought t was really drawn out and tedious admin and contact period and yet reading these posts most people started well before us. We had a fair few ups and downs with small errors, omissions and duplicates that we had to point out over and over again. |

Through our admin the geelong office and the drafties nearly always seemed to be snowed under. Every little correction could easily turn into a 6 weeks round trip. They were saying all the way through our admin phase that they were looking to increase admin staff to reduce the load. It finally feels like it has started to happen now. Lately their communication and response times have been really good. |
