    The tree does need addressing however the rear end extension roof is actually higher than the tree.
    A rear extension which has been approved under State complying development is the height of a three storey building. The height according to plans is 8m however from independent calculations it is higher than that. There is a neighbouring two storey addition which is half the size. The first floor has 3m ceilings with large glass sliding doors which look over into properties in May street and my second floor bedroom. It is a very intrusive addition.
    It would be easy to achieve a third level loft space with the construction of this extension, which is what could happen after the occupation certificate is issued. NSW planning only allows two storey additions.
    As this is State complying development none of the immediate neighbours in May Street, which are affected by this build, were given the chance to voice concerns. This is the problem with State building approvals, no one needs to be notified, only adjacent houses.
    Council can't do anything because it's State approved. What good is a local council then? The certifier didn't even bother to put their name and the CD number on the front fence, just the builder's sign in the rear lane, very clandestine.
