Heritage Code Amendment Romalo House Complex

FAQ

The Planning and Design Code (or “the Code”) is a single set of planning rules used across South Australia. It helps guide how land can be developed and ensures growth happens in a way that suits each local area.

A Code Amendment is a proposal to change or update parts of the Code - such as its policies, rules, or maps - to make sure future development is assessed fairly and accurately.

Local Heritage Places are buildings, structures, or sites that have important historical value to a community. They help tell the story of our area’s past and are listed in the Local Heritage Place Overlay of the Code.

The Historic Area Overlay identifies neighbourhoods or areas that have a special historic character worth preserving. Each of these areas has a Historic Area Statement, which highlights the key features that make the area special and provides guidance for any future development.
