If it's fire zoned ;then it will fail the SEPP 10 days granny flat quick approval.
1. It needs a full DA
2. A fire party wall must be installed ( attached)
3. I think certain materials must be used as well
4. + require a bit more room ( for easy access and exit) and size adjustments etc...

Sorry Michael, but that's not correct. It will only fail to meet the SEPP for Compolying Deveopment if it's in a 'Flame Zone'. i.e. basically, the bushland is right on your doorstep (pretty rare).
You're right that it generally means you have to use fire-retardent claddings (brick, masonry or even aluminium/resin based cladding) and ember-seals to doors, weepholes + toughened(5mm) glass etc.
My IP is in Cheltenham ( Hornsby council) - me and my builders has tried to fight for the SEPP but its been rejected a twice because it's fire zoned. ( a good 8 month ago)
Pain in a ***...you may be right about the "flame zone" ( to be honest, first time i have heard of this term) but either way hornsby had this same condition for our fire zone
All good now; as it's DA approved- but spent a lot of time just getting the plans updated and the DA done.

From a personal point of view; having dealt with Hornsby council on regular basis ( the most annoying council ever! with their stupid 40% floor space rule)
If it's fire zoned ;then it will fail the SEPP 10 days granny flat quick approval.

According to Hornsby DCP - " bushfire prone land...must comply with the specification and requirements of planning for bushfire protection 2001"
Either way speak to the town planner and confirm.
