    This " Secondary Dwelling" is the permanent residence of John and Janet Angus, and has been since they moved in on 24/12/13.
    I know this for a fact, because my husband and I own the property right next door. They have built their home right on our boundary line. Their residential block is under single title and therefore should only have 1 HOUSE on it.
    The daughter and son-in-law of John and Janet Angus, live in the original house, and John and Janet live in the new house. Apparently the second house was approved as a " Studio", this is a joke as the second house is definitely a permanent residence.I could provide photo's if necessary, but it is rather obvious even from the road. They have even installed a second mailbox with their own number on it, is this legal?

    I am curious to know if the Sunshine Coast Regional Council is happy with this approval?

    If so, we would like to build a second dwelling on our property also, would that be approved?
    We may as well build our own second cottage, so we don't have to look at their ugly second house from our deck.
    The whole idea of living on small acreage is to not have neighbours so close. We now have a completely different view to the one we purchased in 2003, through no fault of our own.

    I believe this application should be denied.

    From the perspective of a neighbouring property, 110's dwelling fails to comply with Dwelling House Code P05 & P012.

    Before this dwelling was built, neighbours had a view from their deck of an open natural landscape, along with an avocado orchard, which concealed the primary house from view and reinforced the rural character of the neighborhood.

    A neighbouring pool and family's outdoor living area's privacy has been impacted by the current daily usage of this dwelling, where dwellers are seen frequenting the washing line and have a window in view of the outdoor living area and pool.

    The location and current useage of this dwelling impacts the nature of the useage and enjoyment of the neighbours' own outdoor amenities.
