Understand heritage policy as it relates to subdivision.
Page Content
It is policy to:
- Ensure subdivision of a heritage place:
- Reflects the pattern of development in the street or precinct.
- Maintains settings and contexts for significant and contributory heritage buildings and places, including the retention of any original garden areas, large trees and other features which contribute to the significance of the heritage place.
- Does not provide for future development which will visually disrupt the setting and impact on the presentation of the significant or contributory building.
- Ensure subdivision that provides for three dimensional building envelopes for future built form to each lot proposed.
- Discourage subdivision of airspace above heritage buildings that provides for future development.
