Q: When is it useful to have a Conservation Management Plan?
A:
Statement of Heritage Impact
Q: What is this?
A: A Statement of Heritage Impact (SOHI), together with supporting information, addresses:
- why the item is of heritage significance
- what impact the proposed works will have on that significance
- what measures are proposed to mitigate negative impacts
- why more sympathetic solutions are not viable
A SOHI needs to explain how the heritage value of an item is to be conserved, or preferably enhanced by the proposed development. This could involve stabilisation and repair work, restoration, reconstruction or redevelopment for a new use.
Q: Do I need one?
YES, we can prepare this on your behalf for your heritage Development Application.
Archival Recording
Q: What is this?
A: Councils may require, as a condition of Development Approval, that your project is to be archivally recorded.
The purpose of an archival record is to prepare a written and visual statement of the condition of the approved project, before new work is carried out.
Digital photographs are provided in 'soft' copy as well as on 'archival' quality paper with non-fading inks.
Photographs are referenced by floor plans showing locations and include both overall views, as well as details of construction and finishes.
