Hi All,
I guess this question is more aimed at those in Canberra - and who are familiar with the bureaucratic maze called ACTPLA.
Anyway, what is the "borderline" in having a granny flat in your backyard (with 2 bedrooms), compared to having a dual occupancy place? That is, at what point (as determined by ACTPLA) should a residence with a separate granny flat become a block with dual occupancy?
The reason i ask, is that i am just about to settle on an IP in the Inner north and i am contemplating putting an approved 2 bedroom granny flat in the separate space where the old garage exists now. Can i do this without going through the dual occupancy process?
Thanks
