DA approvals in Sutherland Shire Council - What do I need to consider when doing an home extension

The "new" Sutherland Shire DCP 2015 has made some very lenient changes for the local area if you are considering residential extensions in sutherland shire. With bigger floor space ratio (depending on your zoning), and more flexible regulations in height, setbacks and landscape areas, residential extensions seems to be more "possible" to many houses, even if you are on a slightly smaller lots.

Things to consider include:

• Floor space Ratio
• Height limit
• Landscape Area
• Setback; front, side, rear
• driveway and vehicle access (if you are planning to redo the facade/garage/carport)
• Privacy, sunlight and overshadowing ( if you are planning to build a first floor hom extensions)
