Representation Summary:

Eastwood House in Victoria Park, a Grade II Listed Building, is located 100 metres north of the site. The development of this area could harm elements which contribute to the significance of this designated heritage asset. Whilst the park is undoubtedly part of the setting to Eastwood House it is not mentioned in the list description for this building. The pro forma for this site incorrectly refers to Grade II Listed Building north-west of the site as Victoria Park. This should be corrected so as to avoid any confusion. Whilst we welcome the inclusion of a reference to the proximity of this designated heritage asset as a Constraint in the sites pro forma, the first bullet point under the Development Considerations for this
site needs to be amended to correct the title of the heritage asset.
In addition, the Council should consider whether any of the buildings and structures on the site should be classified as nondesignated heritage assets and retained as part of its development.
Correct the references made in the site pro forma to the designated heritage asset north-west of the site from
‘Victoria Park’ to ‘Eastwood House in Victoria Park’
