Planning permission for an observatory
Hi,
Inadvertently I created a thread about this under observational astronomy, which may yet elicit some responses but thought I should find a more appropriate home. This is a DIY observatory section so may not be correct either but.....
I have finally bought a Sirius Observatories 2.3m dome, which achieves a max height of 2.8m.
It will sit on a slab 3m x 2.5m in my back garden in Nundah. I just went to the Brisbane council website and used the wizard tool (or erecting a shed), which told me I didn't. The reason for my uncertainty though is there was nothing that asked specifically about the height, other than to ask if it was two or more stories - which of course it is not.
When we had the fence put up though because the 1.8m fence was also on top of a 1m retaining wall in the far corner we needed to apply for a height relaxation. Does anyone know if height of an observatory is covered by legislation?
