Re: First floor addtiion - Sequence from beginning to build 4Mar 15, 2020 9:55 am Not sure why you would get a DA/CDC and then go back through the process again. You only get a DA when you know what you need to get approved, and only make changes in response to requests from the council. You don't do a DA and then do a new DA with changes if you can avoid it. Re: First floor addtiion - Sequence from beginning to build 5Mar 17, 2020 8:31 pm With our local councils, you lodge the DA then CC, then if there are changes that are more than just say moving a window 500mm then you do a modification to a consent ( mod to a DA ). Updated floorpans and relevant elevations are usually all that are required ( unless it is a more substantial mod ). Sometimes you have to upgrade the other relevant documents like the energy certificates etc as well. Stewie Thank you. Do I use timber floorboards for stairs or do people use timber treads?
