Heritage Impact Assessment

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



5.      Conclusion
5.1      Conclusion
        It is concluded that the proposed partial demolition and relocation of the early house situated at
        45 Maple Street, Cooroy from its existing site to an alternative location also subject the traditional
        character protection (and yet to be nominated) has been demonstrated to not conflict with the
        relevant Specific Outcome and also aligns with the corresponding Probable Solution of the
        Heritage overlay code.

        As noted in the preceding streetscape analysis, the historical streetscape originally extant within
        Maple Street, Cooroy and consequently protected under the Heritage overlay mapping has been
        predominantly eroded by the more recent medical, commercial and residential development that
        now surrounds the subject house and leaves it both isolated in that streetscape and segregated from
        the cluster of other traditional character houses that remain extant in the southern portion of this
        streetscape. Therefore it follows that the relocation of the subject house from this streetscape does
        not generate an adverse impact on the virtually non-existent (save for the subject house itself)
        historical streetscape now found in the northern portion of Maple Street.

        Consequently it is recommended that the proposed partial demolition and relocation of the subject
        character building to an alternative site in another character area within the Noosa Shire jurisdiction
        be approved by Council, subject to the usual approval conditions of this type of development permit.
