Ensuring Compliance While Preserving Heritage
The HIS concluded that the proposed works on 65 Kent Street will not adversely impact the property's heritage significance. The removal of the asbestos corrugated sheeting and its replacement with white colorbond sheeting will maintain the aesthetic harmony of the building. Crucially, the iconic red tiles that contribute significantly to the property’s visual appeal will remain untouched, preserving the character and heritage value of the site.
Our thorough assessment of the proposed works and the heritage values of the property confirms that these works align with the heritage conservation objectives set by the City of Rockingham, ensuring the property’s legacy for future generations.
