Fingers crossed please!

We have submitted the DA to council for consideration. If this is approved, it will let us run the microbrewery as a "home activity".

It took a few weeks to get organised due to work commitments and also waiting on a phone call back - why don't people ring you back when you leave them a message??!

A few wins..

The first big one - we have a website! It will grow as the business does, but you can see us at www.tolhousebrewing.com.au.

After being sidetracked with Xmas and holidays, we finally met with council this morning to go over the DA before we submit it. They were quite helpful and gave us a few more pointers of things to include. We're planning to submit that next week, and all going well should get approval in 4-7 weeks. In the meantime we'll be getting things ready to lodge the Construction Certificate when the DA is approved.
