Dear gentle reader-sorry-a soft start after the rough thread title.

I get on well with my neighbours and generally keep myself to myself. The neighbour to my right has made a planning application to change to the front of her home and extend. The notification came through months ago and it was a normal window a few feet away from my French doors (no worries I thought thus no objections.)

I live on a cul de sac and their house is at the end so I don’t drive past and I noticed last night when I was doing some house maintenance that what they’re doing so does not match with the plans submitted .
It appears that they are creating a Granny annexe and have put a WC right next to my French doors - like 2 feet away.

I would never have agreed to this at planning stage.

Have I missed something? If plans change can they be submitted without notifying neighbours. I am all for change and improvement but this I’m not happy with.

I have popped a note through the letterbox asking for a face to face last night with my number but as yet nothing.

I'd contact the local planning enforcement team and ask, especially if the window situation on an overlooking property has changed since the approved plans.

My friend's neighbours did an extension then used the foundation rubble to build a raised lawn, which meant anyone walking on it could look straight into their garden! They had to apply for retrospective planning permission and ultimately it was approved with some mitigation - i.e. a higher fence, to be paid for by them, even though that was my friend's boundary.

The neighbours that build the extension subsequently sold it and the new people had diggers out the other week digging it out thankfully!

Google 'Brisbane poo jogger' for other random pooing where they shouldn't stories

sorry - the above was meant for the PP who had 'issues' in her garden.....
