Latrobe City Council is looking to identify places across Latrobe that may have heritage significance but have not previously been recognised through past heritage assessments.
Through this survey and a series of community consultation sessions, we're seeking your help to identify places, local stories and historical themes that are important to our area's heritage and could warrant further consideration for inclusion in the Heritage Overlay.
We're also interested in hearing your views on the potential establishment of a Heritage Advisory Committee (HAC) for Latrobe and the role it could play in supporting local heritage outcomes.
