- Fabcot Pty Limited v North Sydney Council [2005] NSWLEC 180
  - Judgment : Summary of conclusions – “Permitting Woolworths to open a supermarket at 1 to 7 Rangers Avenue, Neutral Bay is acceptable but only whilst the existing Woolworths’ supermarket at Grosvenor Street, Neutral Bay continues to operate. Therefore, approval of the proposed Rangers Avenue store will be subject to a condition that the consent only remains valid while the Grosvenor Street store continues to operate.”
