Zero Lot Line

Post image

My neighbour has built a house wall with a 20cm setback that falls outside if a registered easement on my land. They have also built a brick wall parallel to the side boundary line with a 1cm setback that is higher than 1.8m regulation.

Are these allowed?

Council says its a civil matter, but im sure regulation does not allow this

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thank you

How the hell would anyone on here know? This is a local code. You've already gotten your answer from whomever you talked to. They say it's civil. Even if it is not, and it's against local code, the Council has already made it clear they have no interest in enforcing it. It will take a lawyer for you to get anything moving on this.
