Approval estimate for sanctioning applications like this here: about 95% (likely range 65–100%, low reliability, from 3 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.
