REASONS FOR DECISION
The MPT APPROVED the application for the reasons set out in the Planner’s Report and agreed to the following changes:

6.2 The extent of the land use contravention, although measuring 52m2, is regarded as fairly insignificant, as it only occupies a very small percentage of the subject property (0.08%).

Add reason 6.5 as follows:
6.5 The applicant failed to exercise due diligence by not ensuring that the land use rights were in place
