Approval estimate for demolition & new construction applications like this here: about 92% (likely range 62–100%, low reliability, from 4 comparable decisions nearby). Outside the development zone, where approvals are harder. Indicative only. It's based on decisions for similar nearby applications, not on the drawings or the case officer's report; it gets better as documents are added from eapps.
