Heritage Impact Assessment

Heritage Impact Assessment for relocation of Character House (Rev. C)
45 Maple Street, Cooroy
For: Medicentre No. 2 Pty Ltd



          Should you wish to pursue an application to remove the existing building and construct a new
          building, it is suggested that a report be provided by a qualified heritage consultant to comment on
          the streetscape and the building’s qualities. A report should also be provided by a suitably qualified
          consultant on the condition of the building if you consider the building is not structurally sound and
          capable of economic repair.”

        The owner of the subject site concedes that adaptive reuse of the existing character house as a
        medical centre is not a viable option due to a combination of the nature of the proposed medical
        services to be provided (medical imagery), the installation of specialised equipment and operational
        considerations related to same together with the inherent difficulties of provided equitable access
        into and around the interior of the character house; as required for all medical-based establishments
        in order to comply with current National Construction Code (NCC) requirements.

        Consequently the client wishes to proceed with the original proposal discussed with Council during
        the prelodgement meeting and relocate the subject house to an alternative location – yet to be
        formally identified – in order to allow for the construction of a purpose-built medical imaging centre
        within this community services precinct of Cooroy.
