Approval estimate for demolition & new construction applications like this here: about 95% (likely range 65–100%, low reliability, from 8 comparable decisions nearby). 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.
