Heritage and Overlay Extensions

Heritage and overlay extensions.

Statutory planning for alterations and extensions to properties affected by the Heritage Overlay and other overlays across Victoria, from site assessment through to obtaining a planning permit and endorsed plans.

Overview

Planning advice and strategy, grounded beyond planning.

S4 is a development and project management practice, in addition to providing statutory planning services. When you engage us, you have access to people who also manage the acquisition, design, construction and funding of a range of property developments.

Every recommendation is made with the whole project in view, from the first conversation with council to the day the project is complete.

Permit and Assessment

Significance, siting and design.

Alterations and extensions to properties affected by the Heritage Overlay are assessed with particular regard to the significance of the place, its contribution to the surrounding precinct, and the extent to which the proposal respects that significance in its siting, scale and design. Comparable considerations of character and built form arise under other overlays.

We coordinate heritage advice and architectural design so that each application responds to these matters from the outset, presenting a considered submission to the responsible authority in support of the outcome sought.
