Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has had experience with developing on a block with an Aboriginal cultural heritage overlay?
This tool suggests that if building 1-2 dwellings then a management plan is not required.
But then it states that a management plan is required for any significant ground disturbance as defined below.
?Significant ground disturbance is defined as disturbance of the ground or waterway by machinery in the course of grading, excavating, digging, dredging or deep ripping (to a depth of 60cm or more). Ploughing, other than deep ripping, is not considered significant ground disturbance for the purposes of the Regulations.? [URL="http://www.dpc.vic.gov.au/index.php/aboriginal-affairs/aboriginal-cultural-heritage/cultural-heritage-management-plans/when-is-a-plan-required"]
I found this confusing because I thought that there would be ground disturbance regardless of how many dwellings are being built, meaning a plan would be required for 2 dwellings after all. I guess I will give them a call
But, does anyone have any experience/info that they could share about this type of overlay? What?s involved, potential costs, etc.
Thanks in advance.
