Need some advice...
I am building at Opt on a corner block and was wondering can I not follow the Opt fencing guideline eg: instead of timber fence, get brick and aluminium and bring the fence to come all the way to the side of the house...? I know I will not get the landscape $5000 rebate but I am happy to let that go...
Any experience or feedback is appreciated...

You can do that.
My block is 30m long. As per their guidelines, side fence can go only 1/3rd of the length of block i.e. 10 m.
I phone them to ask can I extend it until 15m which 1/2 of total length.
Their reply was 'yes you can, but you're looking at losing about $2-2500 of your landscaping rebate'
I have seen plenty of corner blocks that have colorbond extended almost along the full length of the house.
Are u building on a corner block too?
My block is about 30m too and was thinking of putting the timber fence up to like 23m... up to side of the house...
because I have about 6 m land from the side of my house to the fence... don't want to loose that much land outside the fence
