Hoping there might be some experience or thoughts on what you can do under the Exempt Developments in SEPP in NSW.
Basically we want to put in a recreation room and the 20 m2 allowed for garden sheds etc should be adequate - particularly if it saves needing to go through councils and certifiers.
There are a lot of places that advertise backyard cabins that are exempt developments. If anyone can recommend one of these it would be great.
The Smart Space buildings that you can get through Bunnings would be perfect - but I'm not sure whether this would meet the Exempt rules or not.
The floorspace at 7.24 x 2.78 seems to be 20.13 which is slightly too big - I'm wondering if you can reduce the floorspace through wider walls (do internal walls reduce floorspace for this purpose ?). Also I am assuming that the deck can be expempt separately as a balcony. Attached is a picture of the plans.
I am not sure who you can go to for advice on exempt developments as I don't think council would be trying to help too much.
Any assistance or thoughts would be appreciated.
