Malvern Heritage Review identifies sites of interest

A recently conducted Malvern Heritage Review builds on the City of Stonnington’s program of investigating, protecting and managing places and precincts of heritage significance.

The review outlined a plan for Council to:

  • Apply a Heritage Overlay to 19 individually significant places and four heritage precincts
  • Strengthen what we know about 25 already identified significant places and three precincts.

We know our community is passionate about protecting heritage buildings and this is the first suburb completed in a Stonnington wide suburb review. It’s also the first comprehensive street-by-street assessment in the eastern half of our municipality.

This builds on the already extensive protection work undertaken to protect heritage in Stonnington, with close to one quarter of our properties under some form of heritage protection or overlay.

The next step for these Malvern properties is a planning scheme amendment to apply the recommended controls. Affected owners and occupiers will be contacted and can be involved through the amendment process.
