The City of Stonnington has prepared Amendment C316ston to the Stonnington Planning Scheme.
The amendment proposes to implement the findings of the Malvern Heritage Review (GJM Heritage, 2021) which recommends:
- inclusion of nineteen (19) individual places (including 15 new places not currently in the Heritage Overlay), and four (4) precincts in the Heritage Overlay; and
- updating the strategic justification (including changes to controls, extent and gradings) for twenty-five (25) individual places and three (3) precincts currently within the Heritage Overlay.
The land affected by the amendment applies to various places within the study area (generally the suburb of Malvern). Please see Attachment A to the Explanatory Report for all proposed changes.
The amendment also proposes to replace the Neighbourhood Character Overlay Schedule 5 from 29-37 & 34-44 Dixon Street, Malvern with a Heritage Overlay. It is also proposed to make a minor change to the City of Stonnington Heritage Design Guidelines, July 2017, currently a Reference document to the Stonnington Planning Scheme at Clause 21.09, by removing the letter grading from the definition of 'contributory place' on page 36.
