Did you know, works to heritage items or buildings within a heritage conservation area do not always require development consent? Clause 5.10 of the Standard Instrument provides circumstances where a local heritage exemption may be granted.
DFP prepared a Heritage Impact Statement and submission to Hornsby Shire Council outlining why an exemption should be granted for a proposed development at Barker College. Hornsby Shire Council agreed and granted the exemption.
DFP’s multi-disciplinary expertise across heritage and town planning means we are well placed to assist with heritage development, understanding the impacts and navigating the planning frameworks. A local heritage exemption avoids a Development Application and can save you time and money.
