                    Amendment C198 City North Heritage Review

                    Planning Scheme Amendment C198 City North Heritage Review is one step in implementing the City North Structure Plan 2012.

                    The City North Structure Plan was endorsed by Council’s Future Melbourne Planning Committee on 7 February 2012. A review of local heritage is one action outlined in the plan.

                    The City North Heritage Review 2013 is an independent assessment of the heritage significance of buildings and precincts in the Structure Plan area including parts of Carlton, Melbourne, North Melbourne and West Melbourne. The review makes recommendations for planning scheme heritage controls. Amendment C198 is generally based on the review’s recommendations.

                    Amendment C198 implements many of the findings of the review by changing the Melbourne Planning Scheme to:

                    • introduce new individual heritage overlays and heritage precincts
                    • remove individual places from the heritage overlay
                    • modify existing heritage overlays such as adding or deleting properties from a precinct
                    • change the existing heritage grading of places.

                    Current status

                    The Minister for Planning gazetted the approval of the amendment on 15 October 2015.

                    The approved version of the amendment is available from Planning Scheme Amendments Online.

                    Public consultation
