Has anyone had any major problems with getting approval to build a garage over easement on a side by side townhouse development with a side easment in Melbourne? I believe SEW allows a garage over easement if the sewer asset is no bigger than 225mm and up to 3.5m deep and the wall is not load bearing to the weight of the cantilevered second storey. Any experience here?
Think laterally - provide an open parking space or cantilevered carport/visitor space/carwash bay (may cost a few $ in end market value & profit) but could get it over the line.
Yes I have thought down this route. I think I'll probably have to go with a single garage on the easement side offset from the boundary and a double on the other.
Why not do a double but have the second car space over the easement more like a carport but have a matching roller door on it
Of course I have... But if you've ever dealt with them before they are hardly helpful... and certainly dont give ideas of alternatives like @bob shovel did.
I've heard that a temporary structure is easier. Is it joined to the house, with a concrete slab and all?
