I don't think the roof would come into play either but I'l get onto the council just to double check If the roof is not included looks like we may be in with a shot to have a 1.75m boundary to one side like PD suggested and a 1m boundary on the garage side to keep them happy Woohooo, we still might be in with a shot My karma ran over your dogma Re: Help me make sense of this please 22May 16, 2008 9:50 pm haywgl Thanks so much guys = thats a huge help I don't think the roof would come into play either but I'l get onto the council just to double check If the roof is not included looks like we may be in with a shot to have a 1.75m boundary to one side like PD suggested and a 1m boundary on the garage side to keep them happy Woohooo, we still might be in with a shot My fingers are crossed for you Paula Re: Help me make sense of this please 25May 16, 2008 9:53 pm Haywgl
Here are some diagrams which may help explain the gobbledegook that are the setback provisions, its from a document which is intended to explain setbacks in "plain" english....well sort of....if you are interested PM me an email address and I can forward it to you. Hopefully this helps rather than confuse you more..... As has been pointed out council specific provisions may also have to be considered in addition to Victorian Planning Provision (VPP) requirements.

It does help to make sense and reading what you have wrote it seems that my council has followed those exact rules and not added anymore. It is also good to read that it is calculated on wall height (not including the roof) so based on Hysterical's figure of wall height of 5625, I'm guessing my side setback of 1.75m should be ok (I'm not great at maths so can't figure out the exact setback figure) Also it is good to hear that eaves are not taken into account unless they are more than 500mm, ours are 450mm so we are safe This is looking more promising by the minute!!!!
