Recently there has been new rules introduced that make getting approval for medium density dwellings easier. Instead of 6-12 months for approval this new process could get you approval in as little as 2 weeks.\\n\\n\\n\\nThis is exciting stuff for developers and today I have Luke Durack from http://www.durackarchitects.com/ to discuss this new approval process and how you can take advantage of it.\\n\\n\\n\\n0:00 - Introduction0:43 - What is this new process?2:23 - Difference between this and DA approval4:00 - What developments does this code apply to?6:08 - Does this apply to granny flats?6:40 - Will this code become more commonly used8:37 - The pros and cons of taking this avenue11:15 - How can people find out more about this?12:45 - How to get in contact with Luke13:15 - Will all architects know about this?\\n\\n\\n\\nRecommended Videos:\\n\\n\\n\\nThe Complete Guide To The Development Approval Process: Part 1/2 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZaxtl-1daQ\\n\\n\\n\\nA Better Way To Get Development Approval - Compliant Development Code - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUtkZFlh01s\\n\\n\\n\\nTranscription\\n\\n\\n\\nRyan 0:00If you're looking at developing property, then the development approval process can be an extremely difficult and arduous process that can take an extremely long period of time with setbacks and knock backs and going back to Council and this whole process, but there's actually been introduced a new are easier and faster way in order to get development approval done for medium density. So today I have with me, Luke, jack, from jack architects. Hi, Luke, how's it going? Good, I run good. And today, we're going to talk about this new process and how you could potentially use it if you're doing some property development yourself. So Luke, do you want to kind of give us the rundown? What is this new process? What's it called? Why is it better faster than, you know, going through a DA and going through counsel?\\n\\n\\n\\nLuke 0:52Okay, I'll I'll try and keep it simple because it's, it is simple in nature, but it's quite, it can get quite complicated quite quickly. Basically, as we, when we last spoke, we spoke about compliant development as it relates to houses. So an approval pathway that bypasses council essentially, this new part of the code, which is still compliant development, relates to medium density housing, and it's called the low rise housing diversity code. And it's specific to development types, such as dual occupancies terraces, and what they call Manor houses. And essentially, like, like it is for houses. It's a fast track way of getting through accounts. And so you don't, you're not getting held up by councils having their own particular biases or objections. You go straight through a certifier, you still needed, you'd still need an architect to draw up all your drawings and get all their reports done. But you'd have to worry about neighbor objections, because they can't have any size. Basically, as long as you tick all the boxes, you can have, in theory, your development approved in a couple of weeks, as opposed to if you go through Council, six months a year, go the landmark or whatever. So it's, it's a, it's a great, it's a great if you can if you can get your development to work within this pathway. It's a bit of a no brainer, in many ways.\\n\\n\\n\\nRyan 2:22Yeah. So we actually talked about the development approval process and how all of that works a couple of years ago. So I'll link up to that down below. But basically, going through that DEA process, Yeah, you do. There's obviously guidelines you have to stick within, then there's a period where neighbors can put up rejection objections, and you know, if it doesn't get approved, you might have to make changes, etc. Then the difference with this, from my understanding is that it's more black and white. Whereas with DEA approval, sometimes you'll step outside of what you're m..."
