Heritage shield secured

Key points

• Heritage protections will be placed on 49 properties across Wyndham after councillors unanimously voted to adopt a planning scheme amendment. The amendment will cover 15 individual heritage places and one heritage precinct in Werribee and Little River.
• One affected property, 15 Anderson Street, is noted for its local aesthetic significance as a preserved 1950s cream brick veneer bungalow.
• The homeowner objected to the inclusion, but council officers confirmed the property met the Heritage Overlay threshold.
