1. This change is only re roofing material , I was there today at planning.
   Is that such a problem with the new building materials ?
   We have used and still will stop sub division in Glen Iris Estate ( similar covenant ) but check what they change is about before you come in full on .
   As in this case it is not necessary and will not help future objections such as sub division that will be essential to stop.

2. The variation being sought to the restrictive covenant is documented at Council as being for a "metal roof on a rear extension". This information will become generally available once advertising starts. As the Secretary of the Glen Iris Heights Estate Residents Group (GIHERG) I can confirm that our organisation does not object to this variation. It was originally applied to the Estate to prevent people from building and living in 'tin sheds'. It has no relevance today as Council would not allow this type of occupation. If you are interested in the GIHERG you can go to the web site https://sites.google.com/site/glenirisheights/objectives . I trust this sheds some clarity ob the issue.

3. Single dwelling covenants are obviously the most important part of these covenants but some other aspects are equally important, incl. setbacks and building materials (e.g. brick). I think Richard is well within his rights to ask questions about this proposal. If not terracotta tiles, then what?
