The objectives of the heritage policies are as follows:
- To encourage high quality contextual design for new development that avoids replication of historic forms and details.
- To encourage retention of the three dimensional fabric and form of a building and discourage facadism.
- To enhance the presentation and appearance of heritage places through restoration and reconstruction.
- To protect significant views and vistas to heritage places.
