Re: I made a big mistake regarding my DA/CC 6Feb 13, 2024 7:49 am Thanks for your reply. I'd agree with you in that some, probably most (nearly all), councils do require you to do a survey. Perhaps my council thought I had done a survey as I did provide full contouring on site plans etc (albeit from google maps data). With that said, would you just proceed to start site cut?

With that said, would you just proceed to start site cut? how did your certifier not pick up on it when he issued CC? So my DA is approved. Everything is with council now for CC (I went with council as PCA), and it sounds like (based on your comment) that they probably will pick it up during that process. I somehow thought the CC side of things was a low touch final approval process. I guess I'll get me answer soon and will most likely be that they require me to get a survey with it coming to light that I haven't had one done.

Would you suggest a detail and contour survey. Or should I ask the surveyor to also do some kind of pegout survey as well. I'm not really sure when considerable site cut/fill is required.
