8.6.8 Impact Assessment

. The heritage impact of development proposals, changes of use and the annual works program will
be formally assessed.

. Options and potential for change to proposals will be considered to minimise identified adverse
heritage impacts.

° Heritage impact assessment will include evaluation of the impact of proposals on significant views.

° The impact of minor works, including alterations, will be assessed to ensure that incremental
change does not cause the gradual loss of heritage values.

° Excavation or other disturbance to the KAVHA site will be preceded by investigation to determine
whether there could be adverse impact or whether technical advice or assistance is necessary.

8.6.9 Monitoring

° The condition of the heritage values, the state of preservation of the tangible and intangible
attributes, and the impact of use will be monitored annually.

. Structures with known structural defects will be monitored as necessary, or according to
engineering advice, so that any movement can be reported and addressed immediately.

. Stabilised ruins will be monitored annually.

. Structural timbers in occupied buildings will be monitored for defects (including borer damage and
rot) whenever maintenance work is carried out, and at least every three years.

° Rainwater disposal systems will be inspected after severe storms and at least annually, with repairs
or defects being addressed immediately.

° The results of monitoring will be reported to the KAVHA Advisory Committee annually with reports to
consider and identify any decline of values or fabric condition or of overuse, as well as remedial
measures.
