JUDGMENT

The consequence of the Court's decision in this appeal is the grant of development consent subject to detailed conditions. The conditions are not reproduced as part of this decision but are available for inspection at the Council. A copy the Court's Orders and conditions may be obtained from the Court's registry on payment of a fee. For details of the fee payable and process for obtaining a copy of the Orders and conditions see the Court's web site at http://www.lawlink.nsw.gov.au/lec/ 1 Senior Commissioner: The dispute between the parties in these appeals related the breach of a condition of consent that required that construction does not occur below a certain RL on a contaminated part of the site. The applicant has constructed piles that breach the condition. At a case management meeting, however, the parties reached an agreement on a system of monitoring that satisfied both parties. Since the parties had agreed, the matter did not need to proceed to a hearing. The Court agreed that the parties had found a reasonable solution to the dispute and acceded to the request for consent orders.
