Consultation has concluded
Overview
In November 2023, the Heritage Council of WA (HCWA) endorsed a revised development guideline for corrugated metal roofs. The guideline outlines acceptable approaches to roof replacement in heritage places to preserve their cultural significance. While the preference is for original roof materials like galvanised iron sheeting, alternative materials such as Zincalume are also considered.
Principle 3 of the guideline focuses on respecting the heritage place and its elements. Zincalume is identified as an acceptable replacement material in specific instances where the original roof is failing, and repair or partial replacement is not feasible.
We asked for feedback from Local Government Organisations (LGOs) across WA on the use of Zincalume and other building materials with reflective surfaces for registered heritage places. This input is important in ensuring that heritage places are conserved while minimising impacts on local amenity.
The survey closed on Wednesday, 31 July 2024.
The feedback will be presented to the Heritage Council of WA for consideration.
