This one-day workshop focuses on the role that planning can play in achieving sustainable heritage outcomes on sites and in areas undergoing redevelopment. Current attitudes to heritage conservation will be discussed as well as the principles behind the Burra Charter. Topical local and overseas examples will be used to demonstrate how heritage can be successfully factored into strategic planning by councils and government as part of sustainable environmental planning and what can happen when it is not adequately considered.

Best practice planning processes that have led to win/win development outcomes on complex heritage sites undergoing urban renewal will be highlighted. Several case studies, including former public hospital sites, will discuss the entire process of adapting large heritage sites containing many buildings, landscape elements, archaeological features as well as Aboriginal heritage values and community social values for a range of new residential and other uses. Principles for the appropriate master planning, development and management of complex heritage sites will be outlined as well as the various ways in which planning for interpretation can help to sustain heritage values and mitigate the impacts of development.
