“A challenge that a Council has found against the advice of their officers is no basis for an award of costs; what has to be shown is that the Council have not then justified and substantiated their continued defence of that reason.”
The council's ignorance of their officer evidence and conclusions was ridiculous from the very beginning.
Pure NIMBYism is no reason for avoiding costs.
