Hi all, I hope you are assist me in regards to authorising council access.
I just bought a property in Marrickville council.
Council rang up 2 weeks ago to tell me there is an outstanding complaint dating back to years ago (before my ownership) in relation to some illegal building works at the time.
Now I bought the property as is. My conveyancer confirmed there was no notices with council during her due diligence process.
Council has no building certificate on the original office due to its age. They have nothing except the sewage plan that same with the contract.
I have not been issued with any notices or order from council. So far it's all emails and verbal.
In this case, does any of you know if I have to grant access? and if I don't can they proceed to issue a notice/order to access?
Thank you very much.
