Hi All, I am applying for retaining wall to department of planning.
Application required - "Statement of environmental effect". It just 1 meter high retaining wall... does any one has any template for this statement which i can use?
You need to check with your local council as they all have different rules when it comes to retaining walls. Some Councils allow up to 1m high without DA, whereas some set the height at up to 750mm high without DA.
