The KAVHA site Landscape Management Plan should be
reviewed and updated as a 'cultural landscape plan'.
Initiatives such as reducing mown areas, reinstating
agricultural field boundaries and patterns, interpretive garden
planting and design, and watering systems should be
considered.

Review of the KAVHA site Landscape Management Plan
should include analysis of archival and field evidence for the
potential reintroduction of agriculture, and consider practical
implications including risks, costs, labour and ongoing
management.

A program should be established to monitor the success and
health of cultural plantings and gardens.

A seed bank or plant cutting system should be established
and maintained for plants historically appropriate and suitable
for the site conditions. (Seeds and stock should be provided
to landholders within the KAVHA site at no charge.)

The Government House and Quality Row Residences
Gardens Conservation Management Plan should be reviewed
and updated and should include plant lists for the gardens.

A register should be established of significant trees and
vegetation of heritage significance within the KAVHA site.

Potential subdivision and rezoning of freehold and leasehold
lots along the boundary KAVHA site should be considered,
having regard to potential heritage impacts, benefits for
landholders and applicable planning controls.
