Yesterday I lodged the application for the aerobic septic tank system. I also asked the officer whether she would knew something about the application for the new dwelling. She contacted the responsible person: "Fresh from the press - your application has been approved". Returning home I left a message for the manager of the building company and a short time later I got this email:

"We have scheduled your file and are releasing to construction today as we also heard you have council approval now – Yay!
You will get a letter early next week confirming this."

Oh happy day.
