    I can't find the previous DA, which I believe has been approved, but this application appears to be seeking an increase the height of rooms, which I assume means an increase in the overall building height. The height in the new application appears to exceed the allowed height for the location.

    If my suspicions are correct then this application should be rejected. There appears to be a growing practice of using one design to get approval and then seek modifications that possibly would not have been approved if part of the initial application.

    If the developer wishes to change his plan, then the previous application and it's consent should be withdrawn so the new design can be properly evaluated. There does not appear to be an Environmental Statement associated with the new application, for example, so it's not possible to properly understand it;s significance.

    I agree that there seems to be a growing practice of using one design to get approval, then seeking modifications which might otherwise not have been approved - a type of approval by stealth. I would like to support Norman's suggestion that the previous application should be withdrawn and a totally new application submitted.
