The court set case management for Dec 5.
The federal territories minister, who was also a party in the proceedings before the lower court, has also filed an application for leave to appeal the decision.
In its judgment, the Court of Appeal noted that DBKL had “flip-flopped” on its decisions relating to Lot 810.
“(The decisions were) made willy-nilly with no proper and credible reports to explain the deviation from what had been disclosed in the city plan,” said Justice Lee Swee Seng, when delivering the court’s decision.
DBKL had on March 14, 2018 issued an order in favour of Pavilion which allowed it to develop the proposed serviced apartment block on Lot 810.
It also approved a new traffic flow system for the Taman Maluri area.
However, on Dec 7 of the same year, DBKL retracted the development order and said it was sticking to the proposal contained in the city plan for the 20m road.
House buyers and residents of the two apartment complexes nearby then took out judicial review proceedings to quash DBKL’s decisions allowing the new development.
